Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves unevenly steady, yearlings 4.00 to 7.00 lower. Demand and supply moderate. A high percentage of unweaned, new crop calves in the offering. Cattle futures continue to erode as Feeder Cattle and Live Cattle contracts closed on the negative side.

How this sale compares

Missouri weighted averages

One sale is one barn on one day. The state ladder is every Missouri auction USDA reported that week, weighted by head — the fairer test of whether a lot sold well.
