As filed

Compared to last week; steers and heifers traded mostly steady with the exception of a 600 lb steer traded 4.00 to 7.00 lower. A very large offering today with several long strings and load lots. A active market yet again with most of the offering being long time weaned cattle. A very active internet on load lots and some partial loads. Active bidding from the seats with several buyers staying till the end of the sale. Overall a very nice offering with tremendous class and quality. Sale again next Wednesday.
