As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, not enough stocker cattle this week for accurate trends. Feeder cattle weak in a light test on reduced offerings. Slaughter cows were mixed Boning cows 1.00-2.00 higher, Lean cows 3.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls steady. Trade active with good demand and good buyer activity both from the stands and the internet.

23 sales

Bulls 0–100 lb: high $228.48, low $177.28, median $213.61 across 23 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
