    Beef is still riding high – tight supply, strong demand, and prices climbing week after week. But is relief finally in sight? You might want to stock up before the July 4th smoke clears… 🍔🔥

    Wings are flying high, breasts are still dropping, and tenders are holding their ground – but has chicken found its balance yet? With nearly 5 billion birds processed and no new avian flu cases, something’s gotta give… 🍗🐔

    Grains took a tumble this week, so is the rally already over? With strong crop conditions, ample supply, and fierce global competition, prices are falling fast. Could weather or global tensions stir things up again? 🌾

    Bacon lovers, brace yourselves – bellies are on a summer sprint. Prices are sizzling higher week after week, and ribs and butts are joining the charge. But is this hot streak about to cool off… or just getting started? 🥓

    🐄 Beef is still sky-high – and it’s not done climbing. With production low and demand strong, one cut in particular is leading the charge this summer… guess which?

    🐔 Chicken is having a moment – and tenders just took the crown from breasts. With summer demand heating up, could wings be the next breakout star?

    🌾 Grains look steady – for now. But with soy on the move and global tensions flaring, could the calm be short-lived?

    🥓 Bellies are sizzling, and bacon’s about to get pricier. But with butts climbing too, how long can this heat last?

    🧈 Butter’s rising fast, but cheese is sliding. What does it all mean for the dairy aisle in the weeks ahead?

    BEEF

    Beef remains pricey and hard to find – and even with harvest back up, prices are still climbing. Are we finally nearing a cooldown, or will thin meats keep leading this market higher into July?

    POULTRY

    Chicken is still the go-to protein, but are we seeing the first signs of a shift? Breast prices dip slightly, tenders rise again, and wings climb – plus, a glimmer of good news on the avian flu front.

    GRAINS

    Grain markets are idling in neutral, with only slight bumps across corn, soy, and wheat. With strong supply and good weather, what would it take to finally shake these markets loose?

    PORK

    The pork market is sizzling – bellies are on a summer run and bacon’s about to get pricey. Will anything cool it down, or are we just getting started?
