As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold mostly steady but with spots 5.00 lower to 5.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good for a moderate supply of calves and heavy supply of cows. Slaughter cows sold firm to 4.00 higher as the slaughter cow price provides a little bit of a bright spot for producers forced to sell due to the drought.

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.
