Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers traded unevenly steady. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher. The cattle complex as a whole has faced some pressure this week after last Friday's bearish COF report but the local trade held up remarkably well thanks to some really good quality as well as good condition throughout the day. Supply and demand moderate.
