Weekly Livestock Changes

June Live Cattle -2.53@228.95 (-1.1%) May Feeder Cattle -8.90@339.18 (-2.6%) June Lean Hogs -3.20@107.38 (-3%) June CAD -.80@73.12 (-1.1%)

 

Big gaps down to start week, followed by back & forth trade in lower range. Live & Feeders are oversold on this pull back, but any more support breaks is a threat to change the long-term uptrend. Need Live to stay above $2.25/lb & Feeders to stay above $3.30/lb to avoid bigger slide. 📈

 

Weekly Soy Summary

May +.25@12.25 (+2%) Nice gains on week, but some hesitant trade at resistance of $12.11-12.38/bu. Market is very over bought so if oil & war news/hype fades, soy is vulnerable here. Sitting $1.75/bu above the Jan low. We are deciding on some more sales soon.

 

Weekly Wheat Summary

Min +.03@6.46 (+.5%) Kan+.07@6.30 (+1%) Chi-.03@6.13 Wheat back and forth in bigger than usual range this week. Ended on positive note with a double-digit gain. A big setback in loonie should help basis a bit as well. Next sales depend on reversals & news changing.

 

Weekly Oats Summary

May +.35@3.76 (+10%) Futures continue run on back of US/Iran news & grain rally. Next resistance to hit is $3.91-4.01/bu. or contract high at $4.41/bu if news & hype doesn't fade in the short- term. We are still watching for any reaction in cash, minimal so far.

 

Weekly Canola Summary

May +9.10@739.90 (+1%) Back & forth trade gives small gain on week. Next resistance is contract high $767/T & pullback risk is currently around $690-700/T once war & oil news/hype fades. Will decide on next sales when there is a reversal or sign of news changing.

 

Weekly Corn Summary

May +.07@4.67 (+1.5%) Nice run from mid- week on, futures back up to the resistance range $4.65-4.76/bu. Watch this range for reversal (sell signal) or a break-through to confirm a further .30-.40/bu upside. Cash prices are slowly improving on this rally.

🚨 Canola Rec 🚨

Sell 10% 2025 Crop

(Now 85% Sold)

Sell 10% 2026 Crop

(Now 20-25% Sold)

Prices starting to slip with oil down. Futures came close to $730/T target on Nov and just above on May/July. Splitting final old crop into two sales to balance risk with all this volatility.

🚨 Wheat Rec 🚨

HRSW/CPSR/HRWW Sell 15% 2025 Crop

(Now 75% Sold)

Sell 10% 2026 Crop

(Now 10% Sold)

Prices starting to slip with oil down. Min & Kan still 15-20% off the lows & overbought on this run. Best to split sales & limit risk than to watch market pull back with nothing done.

📊 USDA S&D 
Mostly no change or neutral US info. Only change was a small bump in soy oil stocks (+2%). Black Sea estimates increase but global wheat & soy stocks flat. Corn stocks +1% was only bad world info. Markets more focused on war, oil & currency influences. gsminfo.ca/usda2250

The Week Ahead

Chaotic start with V-top & gap reversals to monitor. Follow through weakness willconfirm those signals, or strength later this week can negate them. Thats what to watch for. + US/Iran volatility, crop conditions, USD/oil, biofuel/ trade policy & more! gsminfo.ca/wa2250

Strategy Update:

We are waiting for a clearer signal from market before going past 70-75% 2025 crop & 10-15% 2026 crop. Catch up sales if behind these levels, then wait for next rec. If the war & oil rally continues, it can drag grain prices too. I want to hold some for that potential.

Very interesting week on charts. Big gap down, hit and held support at $2.31/lb Live & near $3.43/lb Feeders. Then big recovery all week pushed price back up to moving avg resistance $2.39/lb Live & $3.60/lb on Feeders. Ended week with sell-off & sign that support will be tested again.

Weekly Canola Summary

+43.10@730.80 (+6%) Futures blew past $700 & hit $730/T resistance in a hurry! Contract high now in play on old crop ($767/T) & seems easily passable on Nov at $730/T. Small sales if under 70% on old & 10% on new crop, OR wait for next rec when a reversal happens.

 

Weekly Oats Summary

May +.22@3.41 (+7%) Futures pull back early on, but found support at $3.20/bu, then joined in on the rally. Hit a 50% retracement $3.38/bu. Watching for either extension of rally to $3.50-3.64/bu or sell signals to act on. Cash starting to be pushed up by this run.

 

Weekly Wheat Summary

Min +.30@6.43 (+5%) Kan +.43@6.23 (+7%) Chi +.25@6.16 Futures continue run higher. If war/drought risks persist, these are next targets (~.30- 70/bu up) $6.42, $6.75, $6.95/bu on Kan. Add .20/bu on Min. Cautious optimism here & also ready to act on next reversals!

 

Weekly Soy Summary

May+.30@12.00(+2.6%) Futures had some early struggles at the $11.77/bu resistance, then pushed through in a big way to end the week. $12.12/bu & $12.50/bu are the next two resistance levels to watch for sell signals. Watching for trend clues as we decide on next sale.

 

Weekly Corn Summary

May +.12@4.60 (+2.7%) Futures gained some momentum & broke past $4.50/bu, now on route to test resistance at $4.64/bu. That is the next key level to break through, to extend upside by another .30-.40/bu. Waiting for signal at $4.64/bu resistance to decide on sales.

 

⚡A little clarity on Wheat targets. The potential upside range is (+.30-.70/bu). Min: $6.62-7.01/bu Kan: $6.42-6.95/bu Add .20/bu to the ranges for new crop Dec contracts. Just need to be cautiously optimistic as this is more war/oil driven than drought/S&D driven rally right now.

📊 Stats Canada 
Acres Only surprise is maybe oats being down or canola maybe little lower than expected. Less pea/lentil acres makes sense. Flax & Mustard are two most negative takes. No major market moving info though. Hit link for numbers & 2025 comparisons gsminfo.ca/statcan2250

Canola up due to China dropping anti- dumping measures & tariff reduction. Now need jump in exports! CAN/IND trade deal, bean oil/ crude & US/Iran war helping price too. Need to avoid V-top pattern today to keep uptrend to $730/T+ possible. Catch up sales on last rec, then wait!

⚡Rising USD adding pressure to wheat, soy, corn so far. Wheat needs to hold top of old range as new support to maintain uptrend. Soy very overbought & setting up reversal today potentially. May be a rec today! Corn in similar spot after just extending uptrend. Will see how day closes.

⛽US/Iran likely a 2–6 week volatility window according to reports. If war disrupts Strait of Hormuz shipping, fuel spikes/shortage are a risk. If still needed, secure spring & some summer fuel as insurance, but leave room to add later if prices ease. We also monitoring gap on oil chart.
