As filed

Compared to last week: Steer calves and feeders mostly 6.00-9.00 lower except 400-500 lbs. 7.00 higher. Heifer calves and feeders mostly 2.00-4.00 lower except a few 300-350 lbs. 6.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. No comparison on slaughter bulls due to very limited receipts. Trade moderate to active, demand moderate to good.

New Mexico weighted averages

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