Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, feeder heifers 4.00 lower overall, with feeder bulls sharply lower, and no comparisons available for feeder steers due to limited comparable receipts, but a lower undertone noted. Lower prices for feeder classes due, in part, to decreased buyer activity. Slaughter cows gauging 1.00 to 3.00 lower overall with slaughter bulls mostly steady. Let it be noted that today's replacement offerings included a fancy set of bred cows and cow/calf pairs.
