As filed

Compared to last week, no trends available on feeder steers and heifers due to limited comparable sales in most weights, 400lbs to 500lbs heifers sold 1.00 to 7.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold 3.00 to 15.00 lower. Slaughter bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher. Trade was active with good demand and a mostly moderate supply.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $487.50, low $342.54, median $418.80 across 17 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
