As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Not enough comparable sales on steer and heifer calves for a market trend but a much higher undertone was noted on very good buyer demand. Slaughter cows sold 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. Temperatures remain in the upper 90's and low 100's, but some scattered showers moved through portions of the trading region yesterday with another slight chance for rain on Friday.
