As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady but with a firm undertone on the steers and slightly weak undertone on the heifers. Supply was light and demand was moderate to good with most of the cattle having an attractive weigh up. Cattle futures closed with moderate losses on Wednesday. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.

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.
