Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last sale two weeks ago steers sold 3.00 to 5.00 lower, although lightweights did trade sharply lower after the tremendous start to the new year. Heifers traded mostly 3.00 to 5.00 higher, closing the gap a little with their steer mates. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Overall quality didn't run quite as deep this week and with fewer large strings on offer, buyers were more selective putting cattle together. Supply moderate, demand moderate to good.
