Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No accurate comparison with last week due to very limited receipts last week due to the winter storm. Compared to two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers and calves 4.00-5.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00-4.00 higher, bulls steady on limited receipts. Trade active, demand very good.
