Winter Storm Chaos Rocks Cattle Markets: Severe arctic blast sweeping across multiple regions is creating major disruptions in cattle transportation and daily operations. Markets are showing classic weather-induced confusion as traders wrestle with both supply constraints and potential demand impacts. CME reports indicate feeder cattle futures climbing on anticipated supply shortages, while earlier analysis warned of reduced beef movement and consumption during extreme weather.In this week's Tuesday Market Update, hosts Brock and Jim analyze the immediate and long-term impacts of the major winter weather system affecting cattle operations from the Plains to the Midwest. The episode breaks down current market numbers, including a slight decline in medium and large-frame steers across multiple weight classes, while examining the volatile futures market response to weather conditions.The discussion expands beyond weather to explore concerning trends in cattle inventory dynamics, with the latest USDA report showing total cattle on feed down 3% year-over-year at 11.5 million head. Brock and Jim examine how reduced calf supplies and limited heifer retention could affect market prices and long-term beef production, drawing on historical parallels from previous market cycles.The hosts conclude with an important segment on animal health management, highlighting new research from the Dairy X Beef Summit about the significant economic impact of pre-weaning health issues. They also discuss Elanco's announcement of new injectable disease prevention products and emphasize the critical importance of proactive health protocols in maintaining profitable operations during challenging market conditions.
