Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Thursday at the same market, not enough stocker or feeder cattle last week for accurate trends. Quality more attractive this week as buyers where able to purchase larger lots. Feeder cattle futures were also mixed on Thursday, ending the session within 7 cents of UNCH past August's 42 cent gain. The CME Feeder Cattle Index for 7/14 was another 48 cents weaker to $152.35. Beef export booking was at 20 week low and 3% below the same week in 2020. Japan was the top buyer. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 4.00-5.00 lower. Trade active with good demand.
