As filed

No comparison to last week due to the holiday but, slaughter steers were trending lower with slaughter heifers trending higher. Holstein slaughter steers were trending higher. Cows and bulls were trending lower with a good offering of cows and bulls this week. All classes of feeder cattle were trending lower but lighter weight feeders were at a good value today with a good offering of feeders this week.
