Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on steers or heifers due to last weeks light test, but a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls were mostly steady. Trading activity was active on moderate to good buyer demand. Quality was mostly plain to average but weigh ups were favorable.
