“Everything’s been hot, but the cull cow and cull bull market still continues to climb a little, even in an area where we typically see the prices decrease a touch because of supply. That gives a lot of hope for what we’re going to see this summer and leads to what could potentially come in 2025. ” Karoline Rose-Bohannan (10:39)
