Compared to last week, feeder steers sold unevenly steady, while feeder heifers sold sharply lower on calves and yearlings. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 8.00 lower, with slaughter bulls selling mostly steady to 2.00 lower on a light test. Trade was moderate with good demand and a moderate to heavy supply.

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.
