When reduced prices are passed along to the consumer I’ll believe it when I see it.

I hardly ever go to the grocery store but I stopped by yesterday on the way home and the prices for everything took my breath away. Another medal to my wife for managing so well.

Cattle numbers are still down, they breeding cycle is longer than for pigs and chickens. Grain prices should go way down. Either someone is going to make a lot of money (very likely) or prices should go down... long shot.

Fuel prices are still part of this equation.
