Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold firm to 8.00 higher with spots 10.00-15.00 higher on heifer calves. Demand was good to very good for a quality offering of calves and loads of yearlings. The cattle market is firing on all cylinders with the board being supportive, a higher fed cattle trade last week and boxed beef prices rising. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher.
