Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold firm to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 4.0 to 5.00 higher. Cash feeder trade can't seem to garner any support from either the futures or the fat cattle market but are relying on quality, condition and optimism to advance week to week. Nice run of cattle in varying condition with more calves and fewer yearlings than the last sale. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
