Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; slaughter and feeder cows traded mostly steady. Slaughter bulls traded sharply lower. A nice offering of Bred Cows and Cow Calf Pairs also today with an active market on both load lots and package trade. Still a very active market as numbers decrease on the sale list every week. Sale again next Friday.
