Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter cows traded 0.50 to 1.50 lower, while slaughter bulls traded 8.00 lower. Feeding cows traded 1.00 to 5.00 lower. Replacement cattle did not have enough comparisons for an accurate trend and feeder cattle were too thinly tested to quote. Trade activity and demand were moderate. The next available report will be Thursday, June 25, 2020.
