Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: In a light test this week feeder steers and heifers sold with higher undertones. Demand for this light offering was good. Black cattle continue to be in biggest demand. At the time of this report CME Feeder Cattle Futures were up while corn took a big drop lower. Slaughter cows sold with steady undertones. Bulls to few to make a meaningful comparison.
