As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to spots 10.00 higher on those over 600 lb's with the 700-750 lb cattle seeing the full advance. A heavy supply of quality calves and a few loads of yearling heifers found good to very good demand with some top end consignments offered. Cattle futures have been volatile lately but ended Wednesday in the green. Slaughter cows sold 5.00-10.00 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.
