Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No trend as there was not a sale last week. A very nice offering with higher undertones noted to recent weeks. Several strings of grass type cattle with several new buyers in the seats. A few load lots today but mainly package trade. Also a very active internet. A nice offering today with nice weather in the area a much needed snow in the forecast.
