No trends established due to lack of comparable recites. However higher undertones observed on Feeder Steers and Heifers. Quality exceeding previous week, with good demand.

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