Compared to last week steers 650-800 lbs. were mostly 4.00 lower. The lighter steers ended strong. The rest of the steers did not have the volumes in the respective weight groups both weeks to compare. The light heifers also ended strong and the 650 to 700 lb. heifers were 6.00 lower. The rest of the heifers lacked the numbers both weeks to compare. Demand was good for the moderate offerings. Offerings included some lot loads. Trading was active.
