As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, not enough stocker or feeder cattle this week for accurate trends. Most offerings today small lots and singles. Slaughter cows uneven mostly steady to 4.00 higher, with most advance on Lean cows. Slaughter bulls 6.00-7.00 lower. With an interest out of the market. Trade active with good demand especially for bred heifers and pairs.
