Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves under 650 traded sharply higher with most weights and classes enjoying double digit advances. Heavier weights 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 5.00 higher. Bullish market signals and a really attractive offering combined for some dynamic trade this week. The bulk of the offering was offered in medium to large sized drafts which made for quick work. Supply moderate, demand good to very good.
