Compared to two weeks ago, steers under 700 lbs sold 4.00 to 10.00 lower, while steers over 700 lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower. Heifers under 550 lbs sold 8.00 to 12.00 lower, while those over 550 lbs sold steady to 4.00 lower. Sharp losses in the CME Cattle complex late last week made for sharp losses at auctions.
