As filed

Compared to last week's light test: Not enough comparable sales of steers or heifers for a market trend; however, a much lower undertone was noted on calves. Trade activity and demand were moderate. Rain in the area brought cooler temperatures, and caused a wide price gap between weaned and non-weaned. Slaughter cows were steady to 2.00 lower.
