Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Not enough feeder cattle on offer for a true price comparison, undertone sharply higher. Slaughter cows 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Supply was light but demand was good and the market could have withstood a much larger test.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $520.32, low $437.00, median $488.53 across 14 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
