The surge higher in pork cutout values has been the primary focus recently, as the trade has been able to look past the threats of lower exports. However, there is a significant threat to pork exports in the months ahead, mainly from Mexico and China. The threat of intensified tariffs with China may spark more long liquidation selling in hogs today. Ideas that the market is overbought and that the Administration could announce more tariffs this week or early next, which might spark more retaliatory tariffs on US agricultural commodities, helped to pressure. Trade war escalations plus the overbought condition might spark more long liquidation selling over the near term, but strong pork product prices might help provide some support.

For the week, Winter Wheat prices are down roughly 24 cents for SRW, down 24 in the HRW, and down 17 for HRS; Corn is down 16; Soybeans down 52 cents; Soymeal down $15.00, and; Soyoil down 45 points (December crushing margins are up roughly 13 cents around $1.50, oil-share unch at 30%). The U.S. Midwest weather forecast has limited rainfall for the weekend but, close to average totals next week. Temps continue average to above. The U.S. Southern Plains weather forecast has soaking rains to most areas the early to middle of next week. Temps running above average. For the week ended June 7th, U.S. All Wheat sales are running 35% behind a year ago, shipments 57% behind with the USDA forecasting a 6% increase on the year. U.S. Corn sales were running 3% ahead of a year ago, shipments 8% behind with the USDA forecasting unchanged on the year. U.S. Soybean sales were running 5% behind, shipments 9% behind with the USDA forecasting a 5% decline on the year; soymeal sales 13% ahead of a year ago, shipments 12% ahead with a 13% increase forecasted. Mexico could strike at $4 billion in annual imports of U.S. corn and soybeans if President Donald Trump escalates a trade spat with new tariffs, officials told Reuters this week, and it is studying how to reduce the pain of such a move. Deep in the heart of Trump country, Environmental Protection Agency chief Scott Pruitt is being met with protests by farmers and ethanol producers concerned that he is undermining the industry with his strong support of oil and gas. Mexico could strike at $4 billion in annual imports of U.S. corn and soybeans if President Donald Trump escalates a trade spat with new tariffs, officials told Reuters this week, and it is studying how to reduce the pain of such a move. Funds sold 7,000 soybeans, bought 3,000 soymeal, 6,000 wheat and 30,000 corn and bought 2,000 soyoil on Thursday. Funds are estimated to be long 5,000 soybeans, long 80,000 soymeal, net short 70,000 soyoil, long 39,000 corn and long 22,000 wheat. Technicals Support Resistance July Corn July Beans July Meal

The sharp break in the beef market this week leaves a bearish tilt to the cash market outlook for the weeks ahead. A weaker tone to cash markets this week, weakness in beef prices, and the outlook for a very hot and humid weekend in the Midwest (poor demand weather) were seen as reasons for the selling yesterday. Cumulative sales for 2018 have reached 515,100 tonnes, up 22% from last years pace. Weekly sales to China are still small, but they did reach 229 tonnes last week, which was the most they have been since Sep and the second highest since China resumed its imports.
