Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 650 lbs traded 5.00-15.00 higher with spots up to 20.00 higher on those under 525 lbs, heavier weights steady to 5.00 higher. The majority of heifers sold firm to 5.00 higher with spots 10.00-15.00 higher on the 450-575 lb weight range that saw a sharply higher trade on the larger, fancier groups. The reputation cattle offered helped push the extreme top prices this week with the quality and condition very attractive. Demand was good to very good on a moderate to heavy supply. Slaughter cows and bulls 1.00-3.00 higher.
