As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers measuring 4.00 to 5.00 lower overall, with feeder heifers 2.00 lower, and feeder bulls sharply lower; with light receipts and limited buyer activity due to inclement weather. Slaughter cows gauging 3.00 lower overall, with no comparisons available for slaughter bulls due to limited comparable receipts.
