Several Chinese futures firms described hog supply as ample, citing planned November slaughter increases, high slaughter weights and elevated frozen-meat inventories; they generally saw weak demand limiting price gains. Views on the near-term market ranged from cautious or bearish to neutral, with some analysts noting that firmer slaughter activity or seasonal demand could support a temporary rebound.
The reported supply-demand imbalance weighs on hog prices, while ongoing herd reductions could support prices later if they reduce marketings. Weak hog-sector conditions can also dampen feed demand.
