Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, the majority of weight groups of steers and heifers sold 5.00-10.00 higher but there were some spots up to 15.00 higher and spots where cattle sold steady with last weeks higher market; regardless cattle are historically high and demand was very good. Supply was heavy with the nice weather coupled with the high prices, producers were encouraged to move cattle. The quality and condition was impressive again this week.
