An economist expects Class III milk prices to level off and Class IV to reach $15 within three months on butter and nonfat dry milk demand. He says world dairy stocks are being drawn down as major exporters cut production.
He flags concern over renegotiating trade agreements.
Lower milk output in major exporting countries and tighter world stocks support export demand and dairy prices. Trade-deal risk is the main downside factor.
After 41 past bullish trade events, Milk (Class III) moved a median -0.1% over 5 sessions (49% higher; middle half -1.3% to +8.1%), and +1.1% over 20.
