As filed

Compared to the sale two weeks ago, feeder steers under 600 lbs 2.00-7.00 higher, over 600 lbs steady to 4.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 4.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. Demand good. Supply heavy. Large post-Thanksgiving run which is often the case if the weather allows with several nice consignments throughout the offering.

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.
