Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to two weeks ago, steer calves under 550 lbs traded mostly 5.00-6.00 higher while the heavier weight steers sold steady. Heifers sold steady to 6.00 higher with most of the gain on the 550-700 lb weight range. Demand was good to very good as buyers were ready to purchase some cattle following the Thanksgiving break and positive market fundamentals are giving feeder buyers confidence in the market. Supply was heavy and the overall quality was good with several reputation groups of cattle. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-4.00 higher except lean cows trading mostly steady.
