Wild. That word is being used a lot right now in cattle market conversations. There is a lot going on in the markets. For some people, it is a lot to take in and try to make sense of. For some people who don’t understand how to utilize the markets, this is frustrating. The people who do have the skillset share stories of capturing some wild profits.

VECTORBOMB-THINKSTOCKPHOTOSI listen to podcasts that are focused on areas outside of agriculture. As I listen to these, I am looking for parallels that I can apply to my operation. The shows I listen to have helped generate some creativity and ideas. This week however, those shows are suffering from tariff trauma.

VECTORBOMB-THINKSTOCKPHOTOSThere were a couple days this week I received more messages than I ever have. A message every three minutes for a few hours is a bit overwhelming. There was a wide range of topics on people’s minds. For a while now I have been getting a kick out of the expression on people’s faces when they get their check after selling cattle. Many of these folks have never received a check that big before. They think they are making a windfall profit. Some are and some are losing money.

Study your lesson. It doesn’t matter what you think or what the never has beens in the educational space say. All that matters is what free market tells us when the cowboys open their checkbooks. #sellbuymarketing #ranching4profit #cashflow https://t.co/SEsgOSa5V8
What they won’t tell us about trade. By focusing on what he wanted one rancher cut his COG 43%. There’s no reason for margin calls if the producer has marketing skill https://t.co/hMLlVaVSuj #cattlemarketing #sellbuymarketing #ranching4profit
