Compared to last week, steers and heifers over 700 lbs, not enough sold for market test. Larger lots of reputation, vaccinated steers and heifers under 700 lbs sold steady to weak while smaller lots sold sharply lower. Contrary to market watchers, the market held its position better than anticipated. Boning utility sold 7.00 to 10.00 higher while Breaker and Lean utility sold steady to 4.00 lower. Good demand for light to moderate supply.
