Compared to last week: It was somewhat a slower day, with the bulk of the offering being small groups of plainer cattle. A few loads of pre-conditioned feeders are starting to trickle in, peaking interest a bit, but overall sentiment demand was moderate. No real trend to state as there were no comparable sales, but the undertone was markedly lower. Low to average yielding boner cows brought 8.00-11.00 higher, no test on high yielding slaughter cows.
