As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but, all classes of slaughter steers and heifers were trending lower with a good offering of higher quality steers and heifers. Holstein steers and heifers had some high quality today. Cows were unevenly steady with bulls instances of higher/lower. Feeder steers and feeder heifers were trending lower with feeder bulls trending higher.
