Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a light test of steers and heifers sold 8.00-15.00 lower. Supply was light but did include some quality consignments highlighted by 250 head of home raised cattle. Demand was moderate to light. Extreme volatility on the board has made it difficult for buyers and sellers to make decisions. Slaughter cows and bulls sold firm to 4.00 higher.
