Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold with a steady undertone. A few groups of quality yearling steers made up the majority of a light supply of feeders following several weeks of moderate to heavy receipts for this time of year. Demand was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 1.00-3.00 lower.
