Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, based on light comparisons steers and heifers sold 6.00-10.00 lower. Cattle futures traded sharply lower to start the week and fed cattle followed the trend while corn remains bullish. Also, the weather forecast poses a health risk for calves with a 50 degree temperature swing in the next few days. Demand was moderate for a few groups of yearlings and moderate to light for the calves with most right off the cow. Supply was light. Slaughter cows sold steady to firm.
