Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold 3.00 to 8.00 higher, spots 10.00 higher, heifers firm to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher. Really good quality on offer from start to finish again this week. All weights and classes of cattle benefitted from the higher market but six weight steers were the hottest commodity of the day, seeing the full 10.00 advance. Supply heavy, demand good to very good.
