*CLOSE* Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves 7.00 to 12.00 lower, yearlings 3.00 to 8.00 lower. Demand moderate to light, supply moderate. The bulk of the calves were un-weaned with a few wean vac calves in the mix. Live Cattle and Feeder Cattle futures closed sharply down.

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.
