Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers under 550 lbs 2.00-6.00 lower.. 550-650 lbs steady and over 650 lbs 1.00-3.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand uneven. Supply heavy. Good demand for the weaned calves and yearlings with less interest in several small packages of unweaned calves with bids hard to come by on the lesser quality light cattle later in the day. The cattle market outlook continues to point up with the lower calf market related to the usual fall weather and health issues along with large seasonal cattle movement.
