Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, feeders sold uneven as calves under 650 lbs sold steady to spots 5.00 higher and heavier weights traded 5.00-8.00 lower. WIth grass close, grazers found good demand but on the flip side the heavier feedlot bound cattle saw moderate to light demand following the recent losses in the fed trade and on the board. Supply was moderate as the dry weather allowed for much more favorable conditions to move cattle. A light test of slaughter cows sold 3.00-4.00 lower.
