Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers steady to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 1.00-4.00 higher, over 550 lbs steady. Slaughter cows steady to firm. Demand moderate to good. Supply moderate. Fed cattle prices lost around 8.00/cwt last week with harvest rates back very close to normal now but the board is actually higher so far this week with the expected decline having been baked into futures for quite some time.
