Compared to last week, steer calves under 500 lbs steady to 5.00 higher, steers 500 to 700 lbs and heifers under 700 lbs steady, heavier weighs weak to 3.00 lower. Demand moderate to good, supply moderate. Packers continue to harvest record numbers helping to keep fat cattle current and making room in feedlots for new arrivals.
