As filed

Compared to last week: Trade activity and demand were moderate to good. Slaughter cows traded steady to 2.50 higher. Slaughter bulls traded 2.00 lower. Feeding cows traded mostly 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Replacement cattle did not have enough comparisons for an accurate trend and feeder cattle were too thinly tested to quote.
