Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher. A nice offering of steer calves made for an active market on those along with several loads and smaller groups of yearlings all seeing good demand. Supply was light to moderate. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher, bulls steady.
