Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No comparison to last week due to no coverage last week but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with a good offering of high quality steers and heifers. No Holstein steers today. Cows and Holstein cows were trending higher with bulls mostly steady. Feeder steers and bulls trending higher with feeder heifers higher/lower and good buyer interest today.
