Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, feeder heifers measuring 2.00 to 3.00 lower, with feeder bulls 5.00 lower; and lower future prices played a role in lower feeder cattle prices. No comparisons available for feeder steers due to limited comparable receipts from last week's sale. Slaughter cows gauging 4.00 to 5.00 higher overall with slaughter bulls 2.00 higher.
