As filed

Compared to a light test last week, steers and heifers traded steady to weak. Slaughter cows steady to 5.00 lower.Pretty spotty market this week with the top quality cattle having multiple outlets but anything unweaned, unworked or carrying extra flesh or hair not finding as many friends. Supply and demand moderate.
