The Livestock Markets were mixed today, with the Cattle Markets continuing to fall lower. June’26 Live Cattle were 2.52 ½ lower today and settled at 243.55. Today’s high was 246.80 and the 1-month and contract high are 252.00. Today’s low was 242.82 ½ and the 1-month low is 232.37 ½. Since 3/20 June’26 Live Cattle are 10.17 ½ higher or more than 4%. The August’26 Feeders gave a couple more dollars back today. The August’26 Feeder Cattle were 2.40 lower today and settled at 358.95. Today’s high was 364.65 and the 1-month and contract high are 387.05. Today’s low was 358.00 and the 1-month low is 344.75. Since 3/20 August’26 Feeder Cattle are 12.70 higher or more than 3 ½%. The Hogs traded higher today. June’26 Lean Hogs were 1.47 ½ higher today and settled at 103.20. Today’s high was 103.72 ½ and the 1-month high is 107.85. Today’s low was 102.67 ½ and the 1-month low is 100.17 ½. Since 3/20 June’26 Lean Hogs are 1.27 ½ lower or more than 1%. Hello again, it has been a busy month, but everything is going well and back on schedule. The Cattle Markets did what I thought they would do and what I wanted them to do. They filled the gap and made new contract highs. The Fats and Feeders have pulled back after making the new contract highs, down 5-days in a row, and from contract highs to today’s settlement price, July’26 Live Cattle is down 8.45 and August’26 Feeder Cattle are down 19.10. That is more than 5% in the Feeders. The Crude Oil Market has been pushing around all markets, and with Iran just cancelling the meeting with the US scheduled for tomorrow, the Crude Oil shot back toward the highs of the day. Currently, June’26 Crude Oil is 4.40 higher @91.82. The Stock Markets started to sink late in the day as well, with the Dow Jones Index dropping more than 300 points on the day. If the meeting is not rescheduled, it could reignite the war with Iran, driving crude higher, and stocks lower, and both would hurt the Cattle Markets. (The ceasefire will be extended until a deal is made with Iran, but the blockage remains. President Trumps statement is below). The US Southern Border will reopen at some point, and although that does not mean 100,000’s of cattle will cross the border right away, but the thought of that happening could get the funds nervous and they could start to liquidate, especially after just making all time contract highs and the war with Iran not ending yet. I was out of all of my longs in the Cattle Markets just before new contract highs were made, and I started to get short. There is a trade below that I structured and sent out on 4/16 in the August’26 Feeder Cattle. With Crude Oil and the war with Iran hanging over the Cattle Markets, and the eventual opening of the Southern Border, the overly long Funds could puke soon.

Having a Trading or Hedging Account is essential for your business to be successful. Market volatility has increased across all commodities over the last 12 months, and I expect it to continue to increase over the next 12 months as well. Opening an account in the future, will not help you if you need access now. To be successful, you need to be able to manage risk in real time. If you are proactive now, you will have the ability to be reactive when you need to be. You can be Prepared and Patient at the same time. Call me or hit the direct link above.

The Grain Markets were all higher today, and probably out kicked their coverage. July’26 Soybeans were 8 ½ cents higher today and settled at 1190 ¼. Today’s high was 1194 ¾ and the 1-month high is 1199. Today’s low was 1180 ¾ and the 1-month low is 1156 ¾. Since 3/20 May’26 Soybeans are 13 ¾ cents higher or more than 1%. July’26 Corn stayed positive today. July’26 Corn was 1 ¾ cents higher today and settled at 462. Today’s high was 463 ½ and the 1-month high is 484. Today’s low was 458 ¾ and the 1-month low is 448 ½. Since 3/20 July’26 Corn is 14 cents lower or almost 3%. The Wheat Market was higher as well today. July’26 Wheat was 6 ¾ cents higher today and settled at 612 ¾. Today’s high was 614 ½ and the 1-month high is 636. Today’s low was 601 ½ and the 1-month low is 577 ¾. Since 3/20 July’26 Wheat is 5 ½ cents higher or almost 1%. I like a new spread in the Soybean Futures. Buying the November’26 Soybeans and selling the August’26 Soybeans. I started selling the August’26 19 cents over the November’26 Soybeans and today it settled 17 ½ cents over, and I feel August’26 can trade under the November’26. The Soybeans as a whole are overpriced, along with the Wheat and the Soybean Meal. The Soybean Oil trades were amazing and hit my target levels, so the trades were exited, but it continues to run higher. If it pulls back enough, there could be another opportunity to buy it again later this year. I still like the Soybeans to head toward the 1100 level, Corn to slowly drift lower to 440, the Wheat Market to sink another 50 cents or more, and the Soybean Meal to trade toward 300.00, and it could move there quickly. I have new meal trades ready to go if you are interested, and they all have limited risk. There’s lots of opportunity and plenty of action in the Option Markets, and there will be plenty of price action the rest of the year to take advantage of in the Option Markets. Give me a call if you would like to know more or are ready to open an account. Take a look at the trade below. HEDGE YOUR CATTLE NOW PLEASE Have a great night.
