Compared to last week, steers under 650 lbs traded with a sharply higher undertone, heavier weight steers steady. Heifers steady to 4.00 higher on limited comparisons. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Different week but the same story with buyers in hot pursuit of grass cattle and a multi potload offering of backgrounded heifers not having any trouble hitching a ride to a new location. Supply moderate, demand good.
