Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Too few feeder cattle for a test, although the undertone continues to be lower. Many producers have been holding off on marketing, hoping for some kind of a relief rally before selling a few cattle. The nearby feeder cattle futures contract has lost nearly fifteen dollars in the past twelve trading days. Demand moderate and supply light.
