Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Not enough cattle of any weight or class on offer for a true comparison, undertone sharply lower. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 2.00 higher. Overall quality below average with lots of fleshy, unweaned cattle on offer ahead of next week's two Special Thanksgiving Sales. Supply light and demand light to moderate.
