    Cattle Market Guys - Week Wrap Up 8-7-2026
    Aug 7 2026
    Feeder cattle prices just took a serious tumble—five hundred to five-forty-nine pound steers dropped from $463.08 to $408.76 per hundredweight in just five weeks, and the six-hundred-weight class fell even harder. But with national forecasts pointing to a rebound and futures hitting three-week highs before wobbling again, the cattle market is delivering whiplash few saw coming. In this Friday wrap for August 7th, Brock and Jim break down the numbers behind the recent pullback in feeder cattle markets, tracing the slide from late June through late July across multiple weight classes. They dig into national price predictions showing a potential recovery, with the 500-549 pound class expected to climb back toward $419.50 per hundredweight within three weeks, signaling some optimism despite the recent softness. The duo also unpacks a report from The Cattle Site detailing how live and feeder cattle futures hit three-week highs on technical strength and supportive outside markets, only to fall the very next day on demand worries linked to broader stock market weakness. Brock and Jim discuss what this volatility means for producers trying to time sales, and they close out with a look at trading volume trends, noting that light volume in late June has given way to stronger buyer participation heading into August. It's a snapshot of a market caught between short-term jitters and a tight underlying supply story that continues to support values.

    Cattle Market Guys - Tuesday Check In 8-11-2026
    Aug 11 2026

    Feeder cattle have come off their summer highs, but the lighter steers are already firming back up—500- to 549-pound steers ticked up to over $417 per hundredweight this past week—and Brock and Jim break down why the trend still points higher.. With feeder and stocker marketings running 23.2% below the three-year average, the underlying supply story remains tight, even as futures whipsaw on unrelated economic headlines.


    This Tuesday update covers the full cattle market picture: a detailed look at recent price action across weight classes, national forecasts showing a rebound to come, and insight from a Texas A&M AgriLife economist who says the price ceiling hasn't been hit yet. Brock and Jim also dig into surging ground beef demand outpacing supply, Brazil's shifting protein consumption patterns, and FAO data showing global food prices at a three-year high even as meat prices ease. A $2.5 billion JBS Australia-Danantara joint venture signals major institutional confidence in Southeast Asian protein demand, while U.S. Premium Beef announces CEO Stan Linville's retirement after nearly 30 years. The episode wraps with a look at AI-powered drones transforming pasture and herd management, plus workforce and crop updates from across the industry.


    Jim brings a callback to the 1996 drought years to put today's feeder supply crunch in perspective, and closes out with another one-liner too good to spoil here. Whether you're marketing cattle this month or just tracking where the cattle market is headed next, this episode delivers the data and context to stay ahead.

    Cattle Market Guys - Week Wrap Up 8-14-2026
    Aug 14 2026
    Tyson is anchoring its entire beef business around just three plants, JBS is shutting down harvesting at its Souderton, Pennsylvania facility today, and USDA is calling this one of the most historic cattle shortages on record. Yet despite that tightening supply, USDA just lowered its cattle price forecasts through 2027 — a contradiction that has Brock and Jim digging into what's really driving the cattle market this week. In this Friday wrap for August 14th, Brock and Jim break down the latest feeder cattle price data, showing short-term stabilization in the 500-549 and 600-649 weight classes even as both remain sharply down from a month ago. They cover the meatpacking industry's rapid restructuring, including Tyson's three-plant strategy, JBS's Souderton conversion and $102 million net loss, and major CEO transitions at U.S. Premium Beef and JBS. The duo also examines a wave of weather disruption hitting cattle production across three continents — a potential super El Niño threatening South American drought, British Columbia wildfires forcing livestock evacuations, and Austrian heat pushing cattle off Alpine pastures early — alongside expanding U.S. drought coverage. Jim shares firsthand stories from the 1993 IBP plant closure and the 1998 drought to give producers historical context for today's headlines. The episode wraps with a look at the August WASDE report, softening fed cattle demand, surging ground beef prices, and what it all means for producer margins heading into fall.
