Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the auction from last week, feeder steers and heifers under 600 lbs firm to 10.00 higher, over 600 lbs steady. The most advance coming on the five weight steers. Grain prices moving higher after last weeks bullish USDA report, cattle futures prices drifting lower, and packers reluctant to pay higher money for finished cattle, all combining to keep a lid on the yearling market. Demand moderate to good and supply moderate.
