Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 lower. Slaughter cows weak to 3.00 lower. Up and down quality throughout the day along with a high percentage of small consignments and single head lots made buyers hesitant to push prices beyond last week's tops. Supply and demand moderate.
