Numbers decreased this week after some welcome rainfall over the last week. Buyer attendance was good with most processors operating. The market seemed to gain a boost across all categories and really firming up in the export job. Heavy bulls 10 to 15 cents dearer. Bullocks and export heifers firm to dearer although low in supply. Heavy cows firm to 10 cents dearer while medium weight and lighter condition cows significantly stronger up to 20 to 30 cents. Weaner cattle of good quality and in lines were definitely dearer while single and plainer  calves stayed firm to cheap.
