* Final Report *

Compared to last week, not enough feeder steers 400 lb to 950 lb for a market test, however a lower trend was noted. Not enough feeder heifers 450 lb to 850 lb for a market test, however a lower trend was noted. Thin fleshed, fancy, and reputation steers and heifers sold steady on very low supply. Demand was good on reputation cattle, otherwise moderate. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady.
