Compared to two weeks ago: Not enough comparable sales on yearlings due to the light test before the holiday week. Steer and heifer calves too lightly tested from the previous sale for a market trend, but a sharply higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly 2.00 to 3.00 lower. Quality was mostly plain to average, but flesh conditions were favorable. Increased buyer demand was noted on weaned light weight calves carrying favorable flesh conditions. Trading activity was mostly active on good buyer demand.
