As filed

Compared to the previous feeder auction from two weeks ago, steer and heifer calves traded firm to 20.00 higher, with not enough yearling comparisons for a good test. Much of the offering was smaller packages of calves with one load of reputation yearling heifers weighing 884 lbs at 305.50. Cattle futures have rebounded some from their two week decline and that has helped to stabilize the cash market. Demand was good and supply light to moderate.

16 sales

Steers 500–600 lb: high $515.25, low $432.68, median $469.95 across 16 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
