As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers were 4.00 to 8.00 lower with slaughter heifers 6.00 to 7.00 lower with little packer interest today but a good offering of steers and heifers. Holstein slaughter steers were 1.00 to 3.00 higher with a nice offering of Holstein slaughter steers and Dairy/Beef steers were 3.00 lower with Dairy/Beef heifers steady with a good offering of both. Cows were 1.00 to 6.00 higher and bulls trending higher with a light test of bulls this week. All classes of feeder calves were sharply higher with a good offering and lots of buyer interest today.
