As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with good buyer interest and good quality today. Dairy/Beef steers were trending higher also. Cows and bulls were trending sharply higher with good packer interest and active buyer participation this week. Feeder steers and bulls were trending higher with feeder heifers mostly steady and good groups of value added and fancy type feeders today.
