As filed

Compared to last week, feeder heifers and bulls weighing up to 450 lbs. sharply higher overall, with those weighing over 450 lbs. 5.00 to 6.00 higher. No comparisons available for feeder steers due to limited comparable receipts, however, a higher undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls 2.00 to 7.00 lower overall.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $419.64, low $302.47, median $351.93 across 24 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

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.
