  • Cattle Market Guys - Week Wrap Up 5-29-2026
    2026/05/29
    Cattle futures whipped in three different directions in a single week — and the forces driving that volatility have serious implications for producers with cattle to move this summer. With higher-than-expected feedlot placements, elevated fuel prices hammering consumer purchasing power, and pork cutout values quietly climbing, the beef demand picture is flashing yellow. In this Friday wrap for the week of May 29th, 2026, Brock and Jim break down a turbulent week across cattle markets. The data shows feeder steer prices softening from May highs, with model forecasts pointing to a meaningful step-down over the next four weeks — the lighter 500-549 pound class is projected to drop from $443 at one week out to $408 at four weeks, a gap that represents real money on any size pen. Brock and Jim dig into what's driving that trajectory: bearish placement numbers, fuel-driven consumer anxiety, and early signs of protein substitution toward chicken and pork. The episode also covers major corporate news in meat processing, including Tyson Foods replacing its CEO amid underperformance in its beef segment, while Hormel beats estimates on the strength of poultry demand. Brock and Jim discuss what a leadership shake-up at the country's largest beef packer could mean for procurement and cash price relationships. The bottom line this week: producers with cattle to market in the next four to six weeks are advised not to wait for a better number that may not come.

  • Cattle Market Guys - Week Wrap Up 5-22-2026
    2026/05/22
    Feeder cattle prices are sliding, futures whipsawed three times in three days, and a screwworm outbreak on the southern border is costing Mexico nearly two billion dollars in livestock losses. For U.S. cattle producers, this week delivered a perfect storm of market volatility, global trade shifts, and escalating biosecurity threats — all hitting at once. In this Friday wrap, Brock and Jim break down the latest feeder steer price data, with five-weight steers softening to $464.41/cwt and model projections pointing toward continued downward pressure in the weeks ahead. They walk through a chaotic week in cattle futures — corn-driven selloffs, technical selling, partial recoveries, and pre-report uncertainty — and make the case that demand strength, not just tight supply, is the real story behind elevated prices. On the global stage, Brock and Jim examine China's dominance as the world's largest beef importer, Brazil's push to expand meatpacking access to Chinese markets, and record-setting U.S. beef variety meat exports. They also dig into the biosecurity situation demanding immediate producer attention: USDA has escalated its sterile fly dispersal response to the advancing New World screwworm threat, the U.S.-Mexico border closure remains in effect, and Jim shares a firsthand account from the 1995 screwworm flare-up that still applies today. As Jim puts it, biosecurity is like a fence — it only works if you maintain it every single day.

  • Cattle Market Guys - Tuesday Check In 5-26-2026
    2026/05/26
    Feeder cattle futures hit limit down after the USDA's May cattle on feed report landed sharply above market expectations — and the selloff didn't stop there. For producers with cattle to move this summer, the price risk picture changed fast, and Brock and Jim break down exactly what happened and what it means. In this Tuesday Market Update, Brock and Jim open with a detailed look at feeder steer prices across weight classes, where cash markets have been softening throughout May and model projections point to further declines in the weeks ahead. They walk through the USDA cattle on feed report that caught traders offside, the simultaneous softening in consumer demand sentiment around Memorial Day, and why the gap between cash and futures deserves close attention right now. The conversation then shifts to the longer-term supply picture — with the U.S. beef cow herd near record lows, USDA projecting a beef production decline in 2027, and drought conditions adding further pressure, the structural case for strong prices remains intact even as near-term futures pull back. Brock and Jim also cover a packed global trade week: the Mexico-EU free trade agreement, China's suspension of beef imports from Brazilian meatpacking plants, Argentina's soybean export tax cuts, and an EU fertilizer tariff waiver — and what each development means for U.S. cattle and feed markets heading into summer.
