Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers under 700 lbs steady to 2.00 higher, over 700 lbs 2.00-4.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs steady, over 500 lbs 3.00-6.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 lower. Demand good. Supply moderate. Things are breaking our way at the moment with adequate slaughter volume, lower corn and higher feeder futures the past few trading days. Maybe the best news is that packers have bought a few cattle 2.00/cwt higher so far for the first time in several weeks despite beef cutout values having topped and headed seasonally lower.
