Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers traded unevenly steady. Slaughter cows weak to 2.00 lower. With the exception of a 300 head reputation consignment, this week's offering was mostly smaller groups of short-weaned calves, ahead of the two day Thanksgiving Special two weeks from now. A few weights did trade dollars higher if they hit just the right order, mostly heifers under 450 lbs. Supply and demand moderate.
