Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers steady to 4.00 lower. Feeder heifers steady to 2.00 lower. Slaughter cows steady. Demand moderate to good. Supply moderate. Larger run than recent weeks with several more new crop calves in the mix. Cattle futures finally bounced in a big way Tuesday after sinking for the past two weeks which almost certainly helped the market.
