Compared to last week, a very light test of feeders sold with mostly steady undertones. About half the barns in the state were dark taking two full weeks off for the holidays. Auctions that did swing the gates had lighter than normal receipts which is to be expected on the holiday shortened weeks. Generally most folks know the two weeks of Christmas and New Year’s isn’t the best time to market livestock if you can keep from it. The monthly cattle on feed report was released last Thursday and came without any surprises being viewed as solidly neutral. Boxed beef cutouts closed on Thursday with choice at 262.94, down 0.07 and select at 252.95, up 4.67 compared to the previous week. Feedlot sales as of Thursday afternoon totaled just under 36k head. Live sales were reported from 135.00-140.00 with most sales at 135.00 and dressed sales were reported from 216.00-218.00. The Missouri Stocker Formula consist of 2330 head with a weighted average weight of 221.31 and a price value of 173.22, down 1.45 from last week.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
Source: USDA AMS, as filed — nothing recomputed and nothing rounded. This summary aggregates the same sales the Missouri barn reports cover, so it must never be added to a state total built from those barns.
