As filed

Compared to last weeks higher market, steer calves under 650 lbs and heifer calves under 550 lbs traded 8.00-15.00 lower while a nice offering of yearlings traded steady to 4.00 lower. The stocker type cattle have been selling at a high premium for several weeks now, but the majority of the grazers have been bought and with the uncertainty of the war in Europe and volatility of the markets, buyers have backed off on their optimism. The yearling market held up very well with some high quality reputation cattle on hand. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 lower.

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.
