Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, steers and heifers under 600 lbs near steady. Weaned cattle over 600 lbs sold with a higher undertone but with no recent price comparisons. Slaughter cows 2.00-4.00 higher. Demand moderate for calves, good for weaned calves and yearlings. Supply moderate. The market has a more positive vibe than it has for a few weeks following a bullish placement figure in Friday's Cattle on Feed report. However, the fed market may continue to be a struggle for a while and as usual a bawling calf that is anything but light and good will be hard to sell for the next several weeks.
