Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, a light test of steers and heifers sold with a steady undertone. Demand was moderate for a light supply of mostly calves, both weaned and un-weaned. The incoming weather this weekend and plentiful forage left cattle at home. Feeder cattle futures took off on Wednesday with sharp gains. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady to 2.00 higher.
