As filed

First reported sale in three weeks a trend is not applicable. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the large crowd that was in the seats. The bulk of the offering was yearling steers and heifers selling in load lots with the balance in packages of yearlings and fall calves along with packages of cow/calf pairs mixed in the run.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $508.27, low $419.84, median $470.70 across 20 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
