Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to bad weather and no coverage but, slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with a good offering today. Holstein slaughter steers were also trending higher. A good offering of cows that were trending sharply higher and bulls also trending higher. A light receipt of feeder calves this week with no trend today.
