As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady to spots 5.00 higher with the advance mostly on 450-550 lb steers. However, 400-450 lb heifer calves traded 5.00-10.00 lower on lighter demand. Overall, demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. Weather has been an issue to start the week with most in the area seeing around an inch of snow on Monday. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher.

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.
