No trend as this was the first Friday sale of the new year. Higher undertones noted on a short run of slaughter and feeder cows, with very few cows returning to the country. A very short run of slaughter bulls but also higher undertones noted.
Slaughter cattle
By class and quality grade · $/cwt
Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
Nothing removed and nothing rounded — the same lots as the USDA report, with per-head values added. Grouped by class and set lightest first; USDA files them in sale-ring order.
