Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, not enough stocker cattle last week for accurate trends. Feeder cattle weak in a light test. Slaughter cows steady to firm as higher milk prices keeping more cows on the dairies. Slaughter bulls 5.00-5.50 lower. Trade active with good demand.
