Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers steady to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Demand good to very good. Supply heavy. More numbers and quality this week with lots of nice weaned cattle in good buying condition. The long awaited fed cattle draw down and leverage shift has finally arrived with hungry packers advancing the market to 140.00/cwt late last week. The increasingly bullish cattle outlook is being tempered somewhat this week by lower commodity prices and economic worries although the back months of feeder contracts bucked the trend to close higher Tuesday.
