As filed

Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer calves weighing 450-500 lbs sold mostly steady, with 500-600 lb steers selling steady to 4.00 lower, 650-750 lb steers trading steady to firm. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs sold mostly steady, with 600-700 lb heifers trading 3.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold steady. Demand was moderate to good with supply moderate. CME cattle futures had a good day with mostly triple-digit gains, but there still remains a lot of uncertainty in the markets. Demand was best on steers weighing 450-725 lbs.
