Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: No accurate comparison on steer and heifer calves or feeders due to weighing conditions not as favorable and higher percentage of unweaned offerings but a lower undertone noted. Slaughter cows 1.00-2.00 higher on limited quotes, bulls steady. Trade moderate to active, demand good.
