As filed

Compared to last Thursday the market was stronger with an average quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers were steady to 5.00 higher or greater across the weight breaks, with several groups gaining over 15.00. There was strong demand for good quality feeders steers and heifers as buyers were extremely active and willing to pay premiums for quality. Slaughter cows were steady 2.00 higher with a good supply, and slaughter bulls were 4.00 to 6.00 higher with strong demand.
