As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, feeder cattle firm in a light test. Not enough stocker cattle this week for accurate trends. Slaughter cows steady to weak as most processors have their needs met for the Labor day weekend. Slaughter bulls 1.00-2.00 higher. Trade active with good demand for all classes.
