Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage last week, but all slaughter steers and heifers were trending lower with lower packer bids this week. Holstein slaughter steers were also trending lower along with cows and bulls. Feeder steers and bulls were trending mostly steady with feeder heifers trending higher.
