As filed

Compared to last week: There was not enough data to call an accurate trend of feeder steers, feeder heifers sold unevenly from 5.00 higher to 7.00 lower, feeder bulls sold steady to 5.00 lower. Slaughter cows sold 4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold up to 9.00 higher. Demand was good and quality was good.
