Compared to last week, steers sold mostly steady to 5.00 higher, with the exception of the 500 weight steers selling 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Heifers sold 5.00 to 15.00 higher in weight classes under 600 lbs. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 3.00 to 7.00 higher, with the top yielding bull crossing the scales at 2320 lbs @ 260.00/cwt. Demand was very good on a moderate supply.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $524.49, low $388.35, median $466.90 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
