Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Wednesday; no trend on yearling steers as there were not any comparable trades. Yearling heifers traded mostly steady with the exception of a 800 lb heifer selling 7.00 lower. Steer and heifer calves traded mostly steady with the exception of a 450-500 lb steer trading 5.00 to 9.00 higher. A nice offering this week with a few load lots but mainly package trade. Sale again next Wednesday.
