Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No trend available this week due to not reporting last weeks sale. However, there was a moderate supply of all classes of cattle. The demand was good across all classes with moderate market activity.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $483.07, low $384.43, median $425.67 across 22 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
