As filed

No trend available due to not enough comparable sales on feeder steers, with feeder heifers selling unevenly steady. While slaughter cows sold 6.00 to 10.00 lower, with slaughter bulls selling 2.00 to 4.00 lower on a light test. Trade was active with a good demand with a moderate supply.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $508.64, low $376.63, median $423.21 across 30 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
