As filed

Compared to last week slaughter and feeder cows traded 2.00 to 3.00 higher and slaughter bulls traded steady to 2.00 higher. Not enough feeder cattle for a market comparison. Demand was moderate to good for the last sale of the year. Scheduled sales to start the new decade will be Friday, January 3, 2020, at both Torrington Livestock and Riverton Livestock Auction.
