Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers sold with significantly lower undertones. Demand for this small offering of nice, mostly yearling cattle was moderate. A few load lots of steers and heifers offered, along with some smaller eye catching packages to fill orders. Rounds of shots was the biggest factor contributing to buyers decisions today, hide was a good second. Slaughter cows 2.00 to 7.00 lower. Bulls 7.00 to 9.00 lower.
