Walt Prevatt, David Gonsoulin, and Chris Prevatt ( February, 2008 )

Summary

Although beef market prices vary from week to week, month to month, and year to year due to changes in the supply and demand for cattle, beef market prices do tend to develop seasonal price patterns over time. These seasonal price trends coupled with information about the cattle cycle can be used by buyers and sellers alike to form market expectations about when to buy and sell beef cattle.
