Compared to last week, slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher with slaughter bulls steady. No comparisons available for feeder classes due to limited comparable receipts, however, a sharply higher undertone was noted.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $419.64, low $302.47, median $351.93 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
