View USDA PDF VersionCompared to two weeks ago, steers under 800 lbs steady to 10.00 higher, yearling load lots 14.00 to 16.00 lower. Heifers under 550 lbs 10.00 to 15.00 lower, heavier weights steady to 10.00 higher. Slaughter cows 5.00 to 10.00 lower. Even though the trade was somewhat up and down throughout the day there was lots of buyer interest, especially for any grazing type cattle. Quality was very attractive for the entire sale, mostly weaned and with a proven health history. A very large offering resulted in some wide prices spreads by the end of the day. Supply heavy, demand good.
