Mysteel expects Chinese hog prices to rise from about 11 yuan per kilogram to 11.5-12 yuan from late August into early September. The rally is driven by a widening standard-to-heavy hog spread and a tight heavy-hog supply after ASF disruptions in southern production areas.
Mysteel says the gain is a seasonal correction, not a cycle reversal.
A seasonal hog price rebound could lift near-term hog-sector margins and feed demand. The forecast is capped by weak margins and large-farm supply, so the upside is limited.
