Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Thursday, not enough stocker or feeder cattle for accurate trends. CME Front month feeders are also up by as much as $2.97, leading the March contract to the 38.2% retracement of the fall board collapse. Slaughter cows firm in a light test. Slaughter bulls scarce. A winter weather advisory affecting movement of livestock in the trade area. Trade active with good demand.
