Time To Buy Bacon | Pork Drops $56
from Market Trends with Tracy · host Saval Foodservice
First of all, Happy Birthday to Tracy's Mother! On Tuesday bellies dropped $48 and with yesterday’s close at $144 has dropped $56 since last week’s close of $200. Elevated cold storage numbers, hows that for a turn around from last year… plus expected increasing production as the weather cools and packers are dealing with the classic issue, sell or smell it. This is definitely a buying time. I don’t know how long we will see this market but I’m betting we’ve got a few weeks to secure good value product. The rest of the pork complex is following the lead of bellies but not to the same dramatic drops. Pork will be a good value for the next few weeks, at least.
