Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; no test again on yearling steers but yearling heifers traded steady to 3.00 higher. Steer calves traded 3.00 to 7.00 lower and heifer calves mostly steady to 2.00 lower. Overall a nice offering with most of the calves right off the cow carrying both spring and fall shots. A few load lots and partial loads but mainly package trade. Active bidding early in the day with most buyers backing off later in the day. Sale again next Wednesday.
