As filed

Compared to last week, 550 to 600 lbs steers sold 10.00 higher, 800 lbs heifers sold 2.00 higher on a thin test. All other weights of steers and heifers sold 2.00 to 6.00 lower. Wednesday market slipped back a tick due to sharply higher corn board and bitter cold weather in the trade area. Around 1000 head cancelled today due to the single digit temperatures and below zero wind chills.
