As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves sold steady to 10.00 higher with spots up to 13.00 higher and a couple loads of yearling heifers sold 10.00-12.00 higher. Yearling steers were too lightly tested for a trend. Demand was good for a light to moderate supply on a wet day. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 higher.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $447.60, low $357.18, median $413.34 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
