Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, the majority of steers and heifers sold steady to spots 5.00 higher except for some heifer calves selling sharply higher. Demand was good for a light supply that offered several nice loads of yearlings and some smaller consignments of calves. Slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly steady.
