Compared to last week: Due to limited receipts from last week, not enough comparable weights for an accurate market trend. Feeder steers and heifers higher undertone noted. Calves higher undertone noted. Overall, demand good, quality average to some attractive. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 4.00 lower using a limited test. Not enough bulls last week for a market test.
