Compared to last week: Sentiment was mixed on a shorter run of mixed quality cattle. The better number one type steers really made a jump up ward while the plainer, short weaned, and fresh cattle continue to lag in price and demand. Heifers slipped lower mostly due to quality. High yield slaughter cows brought 2.00-4.00 higher on good demand. Trade was mostly moderate. There will be no sale next week, November 27th, due to the holiday. Y'all have a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!
