Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Tuesday, feeder steers and heifers 3.00-8.00 higher. Slaughter cows 4.00-5.00 higher. Demand good to very good. Supply moderate. It was a pretty good time to have cattle in the yards this week with nice weather, an attractive offering and a stronger futures trade. Other than getting dinged a bit by a higher US dollar, the cattle have had a good couple of weeks with fall feeder futures now well above 160.00/cwt and the feeder index at a 52 week high. Packers are indicating some apparent shift in leverage again paying higher prices (126.50/cwt in NE) for a few cattle early in the week. A special cow sale following the feeders was highlighted by some nice young fall calving cows.
