The cattle market has shifted into holiday mode, with a strong emphasis on cash trade this week. Brad Kooima of KKV Trading highlights this in the latest Cattle Call, noting the prevalent sentiment that "cash will be king." Despite tariff discussions impacting agricultural sectors, cattle markets have been less affected compared to hogs, which are under pressure due to Mexico's new world screwworm outbreak.
Additionally, there is an ongoing trend of cattle being moved from northern regions to the south to meet grade purchase demands, helping balance supply pressures in different regions. This movement is keeping the market dynamic as traders and producers navigate both logistical and market-based challenges during the holiday season.
