Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold 3.00-8.00 higher and heifers sold firm to 4.00 higher. Last week was a lighter run of mostly calves, so the best test on the yearlings was from two weeks ago but this weeks trend holds true. Demand was good with a more positive outlook to the market as the fed trade is firm to slightly higher, corn has backed off from last week's highs and cattle futures have been mostly in the green for a few days. Supply was moderate. A nice run of yearlings was on offer and most of the calves were weaned. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 lower.
