Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last due to no coverage but a good offering of slaughter steers and heifers that were mostly steady with good quality of steers and heifers today. Holstein slaughter steers mostly steady with 1/2 steers at a much better value. Cows were trending lower and bulls mostly steady. A light test of all feeders that were trending.
