Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, too few receipts to compare to from last sale for an adequate price comparison, but feeder steers and heifers traded with sharply higher undertones. One fancy set of 15, 644lb steers traded at 220.00. Demand was very good on a moderate supply.
