Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last trended sale three weeks ago, feeder steers 7.00-15.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs 10.00-20.00 higher, over 500 lbs 7.00-10.00 higher. Slaughter cows 4.00-5.00 higher compared to two weeks ago. The feeder market has been trending higher but sellers are squarely in the drivers seat this week with firming cutout values, bullish carcass weight data and higher fed cattle prices adding to the upward pull of tight feeder numbers.
