391: Cattle Market in Limbo: What Producers Need to Watch This Fall with Samantha Cozza-Wright
Description
On today’s episode of the Cattle USA Daily Podcast, Lauren Moylan welcomes Samantha Cozza-Wright back to break down the latest cattle market, including sideways movement, cash cattle prices, beef demand, packer leverage, cattle futures, and the uncertainty surrounding the fall market. With $240 cash cattle becoming an important target, Samantha explains what producers should watch as Labor Day approaches, why consumer demand remains critical, and how cattle futures are being influenced by market psychology and headline-driven volatility. They also discuss the reopening of the Mexican cattle border, herd rebuilding, drought, cattle supplies, exports, and whether producers may be looking at a new price plateau as the industry heads toward fall.
