Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers sold sharply higher, mostly 15.00 to 18.00 higher. Heifers 1.00 to 5.00 higher except some 650-700 lb heifers traded as much as 15.00 higher. Slaughter cows 6.00 to 7.00 higher. Different offering here than in recent weeks with the bulk of the cattle on offer weighing over 600 lbs. Several loads and part loads of cattle were available, all finding multiple outlets. The one exception to the higher trend was 500-600 lb steers which traded 1.00 to 4.00 higher, seemingly not fitting in to any buyers particular orders this week. Supply moderate, demand good to very good.
