Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No recent price comparison available on feeders. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Demand good. Supply light. Good feeder market despite the warm weather and a futures trade which has drifted somewhat lower the past couple of days. The extended forecast may be lending a bit of support as the current weather pattern is expected to be short lived.
