As filed

No comparison for steers and heifers under 700 lbs due to light numbers in those weight ranges either this week or last week. Steers over 850 lbs sold mostly 2.00 to 4.00 lower and heifers over 700 lbs sold in a range 2.00 higher to 2.00 lower. The receipts were moderate with good demand.
