1 Fats vs. Feeders, Off to a Decent Start! By Frank Petricca T: E: fpetricca@pricegroup.com 10/16/2017 My October special report recommending buying Live Cattle and selling Feeder Cattle is showing almost a $1, profit per 1 contract in two short trading days. Of course, past performance is not indicative of future results and there is risk of loss in trading futures. Source: DTN ProphetX charts This trade is unusual because when long or short positions are established at extremes the short-term fundamentals are, by and large, bearish on the bottom and bullish at the other extreme. Right now, as my friend Charlie Andrews articulated this week, "The way we are hedging feeders in the fall is best in years, commercials won't contract as in the past so we need funds to support those thin markets."
2 The September Cattle on Feed report also told us: Feedlots with a 1,000 head or more capacity indicated cattle and calves on feed, as of September 1, 2017, totaled million head, up 3.6% compared to a year ago, with the pre-report estimate average expecting an increase of 2.7%. An obviously bearish number. August placements in feedlots totaled 1.92 million head, up 2.6% from a year ago with the pre-report estimate average expecting placements down 3.2%. Also, bearish. August marketing s totaled 1.98 million head up 5.9%. Bullish for Live Cattle futures. Many of you may ask, what s the main difference between Live Cattle and Feeder Cattle? Feeder Cattle are weaned calves just sent to the feedlots (about 6-10 months old), and Live Cattle are cattle which have attained a desirable weight (850-1,000 pounds for heifers, and 1,000-1,200 pounds for steers), to be sold to a packer. The packer slaughters the cattle and sells the meat in carcass boxed form. Another short-term bullish argument for Fat/Live Cattle is the USDA forecasts for net exports of U.S. meat and poultry, which are expected to rise again this year from previous years. U.S. beef exports are projected to increase by almost 7% in 2017 as the beef sector recovers from a multi-year drought in major beef-producing states and U.S. production increases. Conversely - U.S. beef imports are forecast to decline by 11 percent in 2017, as supplies in Oceania tighten with herd rebuilding and larger supplies of U.S. beef becoming available at lower prices.
3 IT'S ALL ABOUT EXECUTION! Being apprehensive or a little squeamish in establishing a trade that one is not familiar with is the first step into commodity chaos. The way one feels about a trade means nothing. If one is apprehensive...that's unproductive. If you hope "this one" will be profitable...it probably won't. Our job is to Execute! Execute! Execute! Our job as investors is to take all the emotion out of commodity trading and put our faith/commitment into a long-term strategy that gives us an opportunity to capture major commodity movement or what I call Episodic Volatility.
4 Right now, there is nothing to think about except to: buy Fat/Live Cattle and sell Feeder Cattle. This spread is trading in the lower 25% of the long-term trading range and my longterm formula is up. Source: DTN ProphetX charts Hope all of you have a great year trading. All my best wishes, -Frank Petricca
5 Futures and options trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for everyone. The valuation of futures and options may fluctuate and as a result, clients may lose more than their original investment. In no event should the content of this website be construed as an express or implied promise, guarantee, or implication by or from The PRICE Futures Group, Inc. that you will profit or that losses can or will be limited whatsoever. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Information provided on this website is intended solely for informative purpose and is obtained from sources believed to be reliable. No guarantee of any kind is implied or possible where projections of future conditions are attempted. The leverage created by trading on margin can work against you as well as for you, and losses can exceed your entire investment. Before opening an account and trading, you should seek advice from your advisors as appropriate to ensure that you understand the risks and can withstand the losses.
