As filed

Compared to the auction from last week, feeder steers under 700 lbs steady to 5.00 lower, over 700 lbs 3.00-6.00 lower on a light test. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs steady to 5.00 lower, over 600 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower. A lot of cattle continue to move around the circuit giving buyers plenty to choose from, and prices are starting to be pressured by highly unstable feed costs and now a question on how many dollars the consumer will have left to spend after paying for fuel and utilities. Demand moderate to good and supply moderate.
