Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, too few feeder cattle of any class for a market test. Slaughter steers and heifers sold 3.00-4.00 higher and slaughter cows steady to firm on a light supply. Overall supply very light with the demand good. Live and feeder futures both ended sharply higher on Friday as packers are spending more money to gather cattle for next weeks kill.
