Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded unevenly steady with few instances 1.00 lower. Slaughter bulls traded 4.00 higher. A nice offering of Bred Females with a very active market with Breds selling sharply higher in all classes than recent weeks. Active bidding throughout the day from both the seats and the internet. Nice weather in the area with very few empty seats for a very active Bred Cow Sale.
