As filed

Compared to last week, steers under 600 lbs sold 10.00-20.00 higher and those over 600 lb steady to 10.00 higher. Heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. Demand was good to very good for a moderate supply that included several fancy calves and a few loads of yearlings. Cattle futures have been supportive and the overall feel of the market seems bullish this week. The consistent rainy weather pattern is to continue for a few more days, but next week looks like summer may arrive and hay season can really begin. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher, bulls steady.
