Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers steady to 2.00 lower. Feeder heifers 2.00-4.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate to good. Supply moderate. Several consignments of high quality fall calves in the feeder mix. Cattle futures are still in search of a bottom hampered so far this week by the most recent China trade skirmish and Tuesday's higher corn trade.
