As filed

Compared to last week all classes of feeder steers and heifers were lower. Feeder steers 650 to 700 lbs. were 16.00 lower and 750 to 800 lbs were 15.00 lower. Other weights of steers not enough for a good comparison but traded 10.00 to 23.00 lower this week. Feeder heifers 650 to 700 lbs. were 3.00 lower. Other weights of heifers did not have large numbers for a comparison but traded 5.00 to 14.00 lower. Light to moderate demand for today's offering as buyers were reserved to buy with current volatility in the market.
