Reporter comment USDA

As filed

This week compared to last, no trend available due to limited comparable sales on feeder cattle. While Slaughter cows sold too light to trend but a higher undertone was noticed. Slaughter bulls sold too light to trend, with sheep or goats selling too light to trend. Trade was active with a good demand with a light supply.
