Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No recent sales for a comparison. Several reputation strings of calves in the offering with prices near the top of the sale from early last month. Some pressure on the heavier weights and the smaller packages of calves. Much higher grain prices over the past couple of weeks and cattle futures that traded near limit down on Monday both working against the market to start the new year. Demand and supply moderate.
