Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 650 lbs 2.00-3.00 lower, over 650 lbs steady. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs 2.00-4.00 lower, over 550 lbs steady to 4.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 lower. Demand uneven. Supply light. Summer weather was a factor on cattle carrying some hair and a few light unweaned calves. Tuesdays feeder index moved just above the 130.00 mark. The feedlot trade may be higher this week with some help from higher live futures although cutout values are still in search of a bottom.
