As filed

Compared to last week, a very light offering of feeder cattle were not tested with several packages of replacement cows on offer selling with moderate demand with the balance of the receipts slaughter cattle with slaughter cows trading steady to firm. Hot humid temperatures kept receipts light this week as the heat index moved into triple-digits.
