As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers steady to 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 3.00 lower. More local buyers in the crowd this week looking to own calves, especially steers. The lower futures trade over the past week has kept some pressure on the heavier weight yearling prices. Demand moderate to good and supply light.
