As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 750 lbs sold 10.00-20.00 lower following last weeks higher market and those over 750 lb's were too lightly tested last week for a trend but a lower undertone was noted. A few packages of some thinner/fancy type steers sold near steady. Heifer calves sold steady and yearling's were lightly tested. Supply and demand were moderate. Things were on the up an up last week but a rough day in the futures market Friday, fed cattle selling lower and the political uncertainty on election day has taken a toll on the calf and feeder cattle market. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady, bulls 3.0-5.00 lower.

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.
