Trump na 90 dní pozastavuje cla na dovážené mleté hovězí, aby před volbami zlevnil ceny. Mleté hovězí v červenci stálo v průměru 6,89 USD za libru kvůli historicky nízké nabídce skotu.
Trump is picking a fight with the Big Four meat packers and pausing beef tariffs, but the forces actually pushing ground beef toward $7 a pound have nothing to do with corporate greed or trade policy.
Food prices remain a top voter concern heading into the 2026 midterms, with grocery inflation still pinching household budgets. Ground beef averaged $6.89 per pound in July, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data — well above the elevated levels seen during the prior administration’s inflation peak.
President Trump’s broad tariffs have added pressure on imported foods and inputs, amplifying the pain at the meat counter. Yet the story runs deeper than trade policy alone.
The Supply Squeeze Behind the Sticker Shock The dominant driver is a historically tight cattle supply. USDA data show the U.S. herd at 86.2 million head early in 2026 — the smallest in 75 years — with beef cows near multi-decade lows around 28.5 million. A multi-year drought forced widespread liquidation as forage dried up. Input costs compounded the problem: cow-calf production expenses climbed nearly 30% since 2020, driven by higher feed, fertilizer, and interest rates. Strong consumer demand met this constrained supply, lifting retail prices even as live-cattle values rose.
Tariffs play a supporting role by raising costs for some imported lean trimmings and feed components, but they are secondary to the biological lag in the cattle cycle. Rebuilding a herd takes years of heifer retention under favorable conditions — conditions that have only recently begun to appear in limited fashion.
Trump’s Tariff Pause and Packer Push Trump has moved on two fronts. He is temporarily suspending his tariffs on imported ground beef for 90 days starting Sept. 1, to boost ground-beef supply and ease prices ahead of the elections. After the window closes, prices are widely expected to firm again as the temporary flow ends.
Just this morning, he turned his attention to the Big Four meat processors — Tyson Foods (NYSE:TSN | TSN Price Prediction), Cargill, JBS USA, and National Beef — which control roughly 80% to 85% of U.S. beef processing. In a Truth Social post, Trump wrote that ranchers and farmers “have had a tremendous problem with the Big Processors, who many say are a nasty Monopoly,” noting foreign ownership influence and authorizing legal documents “to allow Farmers and Ranchers to be given the right to PROCESS THEIR OWN FOOD.”
The intent is clearer competition and reduced reliance on the concentrated plants. Investigations into potential anti-competitive behavior have already been referenced by the administration.
Why Ranchers Won’t Rush to the Slaughterhouse Neither step is likely to deliver lasting near-term relief. The tariff pause is explicitly temporary. Expanded on-farm processing rights face the same practical barriers that have long limited small operators: capital costs for compliant facilities, sanitation standards, labor, and scale economics remain high. Most ranchers will continue selling live animals or using existing custom-exempt channels rather than building commercial plants.
Ironically, much of the concentration traces to federal policy. The Wholesome Meat Act of 1967 imposed federal inspection standards that proved costly for smaller plants. Slaughterhouses numbered nearly 10,000 in 1967 and fell below 3,000 in later decades, accelerating the shift to large-scale operations.
A ready legislative path already exists. KY Rep. Thomas Massie has repeatedly sponsored the PRIME Act to expand intrastate exemptions for state-inspected or custom-processed meat. Yet Trump’s public feud with Massie — culminating in the president’s endorsement of primary challenger Ed Gallrein, who defeated Massie in the May primary — makes cooperation improbable.
Key Takeaway For investors, the episode underscores persistent structural constraints in protein markets. Tyson Foods has guided for beef-segment adjusted operating losses of $500 million to $650 million in fiscal 2026 amid tight supplies and network adjustments. Scrutiny of packers may pressure margins further in the short run, but the herd cycle and input costs will dictate prices longer term.
Smart investors should treat near-term political fixes as temporary noise and focus instead on companies with diversified protein exposure or those positioned for eventual herd recovery. Food inflation remains a real consumer headwind; portfolio diversification beyond pure commodity plays offers the clearer path.

Tyson Foods za 12 týdnů klesl o 12,2 %, protože ztráty v segmentu Beef dál rostou. Firma nyní čeká za fiskální rok 2026 upravenou provozní ztrátu v segmentu Beef ve výši 500 až 650 mil. USD.
Key Takeaways Tyson shares fell 12.2% in 12 weeks as Beef losses widened and fiscal 2026 outlook deteriorated.TSN now sees adjusted Beef operating loss of $500M-$650M as cattle costs and tight supplies weigh.Tyson's Chicken profit rose to $488M, while nine-month free cash flow reached $913M. Shares of Tyson Foods, Inc. (TSN - Free Report) have fallen 12.2% over the past 12 weeks, putting the durability of its earnings recovery under scrutiny. The key issue is whether strength in Chicken and Prepared Foods can offset worsening Beef economics enough to steady investor sentiment.
Tyson’s diversified portfolio is still producing meaningful cash flow, but the widening Beef loss and weaker estimate trends keep the near-term setup challenging.
Tyson’s Beef Losses Keep DeepeningBeef sales fell to $5.39 billion in the fiscal third quarter as volume declined 15.9%, while average price increased 12.1%. Adjusted segment operating loss widened to $138 million from $116 million a year earlier.
For the first nine months of fiscal 2026, adjusted Beef operating loss reached $483 million, compared with $223 million a year earlier. Tyson said network optimization benefits were more than offset by USDA margin compression and higher cattle costs.
TSN Faces a Tougher Beef OutlookTyson now expects a fiscal 2026 adjusted Beef operating loss of $500 million to $650 million, worse than its prior outlook of $350 million to $500 million. Tight cattle supplies and elevated cattle costs remain the main constraints on throughput and profitability.
Management said the phased reopening of the Mexican border could improve cattle availability over time, but it is not expected to materially benefit fiscal 2026. The company also cautioned that the reopening will not fully close the Beef profitability gap even in fiscal 2027.
Tyson’s Chicken Business Provides a CounterweightChicken sales increased to $4.26 billion in the fiscal third quarter, while adjusted segment operating income rose to $488 million from $448 million. Adjusted margin expanded 60 basis points to 11.2%, and retail and foodservice volume increased 3.8%.
Tyson maintained fiscal 2026 adjusted Chicken operating income guidance of $1.9 billion to $2.05 billion. Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (PPC - Free Report) , another major protein processor, operates chicken processing and prepared-foods facilities across the United States and international markets, making it a relevant industry reference for Tyson’s poultry exposure.
TSN Still Has Financial BuffersOperating cash flow totaled $1.47 billion through the first nine months of fiscal 2026, while capital expenditures of $556 million left free cash flow at $913 million. Tyson ended the quarter with $4 billion of liquidity and net leverage of 2.1 times.
Total debt declined by $824 million from fiscal 2025, and management expects fiscal 2026 free cash flow of $1.3 billion to $1.7 billion. Hormel Foods Corporation (HRL - Free Report) , a global branded food company with a portfolio spanning meat and snacking categories, provides another useful reference point for Tyson’s branded Prepared Foods exposure.

Tyson’s Signals Still Call for CautionThe balance of evidence remains mixed. Chicken, Prepared Foods and cash generation offer support, but Beef losses are still widening and the company’s fiscal 2026 Beef outlook has deteriorated.
TSN currently carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), despite a VGM Score of A, Value Score of B, Growth Score of B and Momentum Score of C. The favorable Value, Growth and VGM Scores point to attractive underlying style characteristics, but Style Scores are designed to complement the Zacks Rank rather than override it.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2026 earnings is $3.95 per share and has moved 2.6% lower over the past four weeks. That negative revision trend, together with the #5 Rank, supports a cautious near-term view even after the recent share-price decline.

Aug 3 (Reuters) - Tyson Foods (TSN.N), opens new tab lowered its annual profit forecast on Monday, warning that losses in its beef business would widen as tight U.S. cattle supplies keep livestock costs elevated.
U.S. meatpackers have bled money in their beef businesses because increased costs for cattle have outpaced gains from soaring selling prices for steaks and hamburger meat.

The cut to Tyson's forecast signals more financial pain for the sector after the company this year closed a massive beef plant in Nebraska and slashed operations at a plant in Texas, laying off thousands of workers.
Shares of the Springdale, Arkansas-based company were down about 3% in premarket trading.
Board member Jeff Schomburger must confront the challenge in beef in October when he takes over as CEO for veteran leader Donnie King.
U.S. ranchers reduced the nation's cattle herd to its lowest level in 75 years after a prolonged drought burned up pastures and raised feed costs, driving up beef prices and squeezing meatpackers' profit margins. Higher beef prices have also weighed on demand as inflation-conscious consumers curb spending.
Tyson now expects fiscal 2026 adjusted operating income of $2.1 billion to $2.3 billion, compared with its previous forecast of $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion.
For its beef business, the company forecast an adjusted operating loss of $500 million to $650 million, compared with its prior expectation of a loss of $350 million to $500 million.
Beef sales volumes fell 15.9% in the quarter that ended on June 27 while prices jumped 12.1%.
U.S. cattle supplies were further constrained after Washington suspended imports of livestock from Mexico more than a year ago in an attempt to keep out the flesh-eating pest New World screwworm. The agency plans to start lifting its ban this month, though the move will take time to benefit beef processors, analysts said.
As beef prices rise, some consumers have turned to chicken as a cheaper source of protein, helping Tyson offset part of the weakness in its larger beef segment.
Chicken sales volumes rose 1% during the quarter, while adjusted operating margin in the segment increased 11.2%.
Tyson reported quarterly sales of $13.87 billion, below analysts' estimates of $14.12 billion.
It expects annual revenue growth of 2.5% to 3.5%, compared with analysts' expectations of a growth of 4.3%, according to data compiled by LSEG. The company had previously forecast growth of 2% to 4%.

Tyson Foods klesá před otevřením trhu o 3 % poté, co čtvrtletní tržby zaostaly za odhady a objem prodeje spadl o 2,8 %. Upravený zisk na akcii 0,99 USD ale odhady naplnil.
Shares in Tyson Foods Inc (NYSE:TSN) fell 3% ahead of the opening bell in New York after the meat processor reported sales that came in below Wall Street forecasts and a sharper-than-expected drop in the volume of product it shifted.
Revenue for the three months to the end of June was flat year on year at $13.87 billion, against analyst expectations of $14.01 billion.
Sales volumes fell 2.8%, a marked deterioration from the 0.1% decline recorded in the same quarter last year.
Adjusted earnings of $0.99 a share, which strip out one-off items, matched consensus.
Operating margin held at 2.6% and free cash flow margin at 3.5%, both broadly in line with a year earlier, though gross margin came in below expectations.
Volumes matter more than headline revenue for companies selling everyday staples, because shoppers can trade down to cheaper own-label alternatives rather than absorb higher prices indefinitely.
The Arkansas-based company, which began life as a trucking business and is now among the world's largest producers of chicken, beef and pork, has grown revenue at a compound annual rate of just 1.5% over the past three years.
Sales over the past 12 months totalled $55.69 billion.
Analysts expect revenue growth of 2.6% over the coming year, a rate that lags the wider consumer staples sector.
Tyson carries a market value of roughly $20.4 billion.
The scale that gives the company leverage over supermarket buyers also limits its room for expansion, since there are only so many large retail chains to sell into.
Further growth is likely to depend on pricing, new products or a bigger push into overseas markets.
Tyson Foods ve 2. čtvrtletí zvýšil tržby divize Prepared Foods o 4,8 % na 2,51 mld. USD a upravený provozní zisk o 7 % na 352 mil. USD. Firma potvrdila výhled upraveného provozního zisku 1,25 až 1,35 mld. USD pro fiskální rok 2026.
Key Takeaways Tyson Foods' Prepared Foods sales rose 4.8% to $2.51B in Q2, with adjusted operating income up 7%.Tyson Foods gained share across bacon, lunchmeat, dinner sausage and snacking categories.AI-driven insights and Jimmy Dean higher-protein products are helping attract younger consumers. Tyson Foods, Inc.’s (TSN - Free Report) Prepared Foods business continued to stand out in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 as steady execution, brand strength and consumer-focused innovation continued to support its long-term growth.
The segment delivered sales of $2.51 billion, up 4.8% year over year, while volume increased 0.4%. Adjusted segment operating income rose 7% to $352 million, and the adjusted operating margin expanded to 14% from 13.7% a year ago. Notably, the improvement came despite roughly $50 million of higher commodity costs in the quarter.
The performance reflected strong consumer demand, disciplined execution and continued market share gains. In the quarter, Tyson Foods gained share in volume, dollars and units. Volume share increased 70 basis points and dollar share rose 50 basis points. Distribution gains, product innovation, improved promotional efficiency and targeted marketing and promotion investments supported the results. The company also recorded share gains across bacon, lunchmeat, dinner sausage and snacking categories.
Innovation remained another important driver. Tyson Foods is using AI-driven consumer insights to identify emerging preferences and accelerate product development. The company recently launched its Jimmy Dean higher-protein breakfast platform, including protein sandwiches, bowls and high-protein waffles. These products are delivering stronger consumer takeaway, attracting younger consumers and already capturing meaningful retail share.
Operational discipline has also helped offset inflationary pressures. While commodity inputs for Prepared Foods increased during the quarter and packaging costs moved higher, disciplined pricing, value engineering and supplier programs helped mitigate these cost increases.
Tyson Foods reaffirmed its fiscal 2026 adjusted operating income outlook of $1.25 billion to $1.35 billion for the Prepared Foods segment. The combination of resilient demand, value-added offerings and operational discipline continues to position the business as an important driver of the company’s long-term growth.
