A fire at Tyson's beef plant in Holcomb, Kansas, on August 9 temporarily shut the facility, which accounted for about 6% of U.S. fed cattle packing capacity. Cattle futures and cash fed cattle fell $5 to $9 per hundredweight in the days after the fire, while wholesale beef cutout rose about $20.
Lost packing capacity cut demand for fed cattle and pushed down live cattle prices, while boxed beef prices rose and widened packer margins. Lower cattle prices are bearish for feeder and fed cattle values until processing capacity is restored.
