Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a lighter test of calves under 625 lbs sold mostly 3.00-10.00 lower and yearlings sold steady to 5.00 lower. Supply and demand were moderate. Cattle futures were down hard again Tuesday and it gave a sobering mood to the market following a long period of trending higher. A nice offering of yearlings was on hand but the calf quality didn't quite match last week. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 3.00 lower.
