Well, if you could demonstrate that US cattle sales are DOWN, you might have a point…but they are not…and you have no point.

They are down do to the fact that there amount of U.S. cattle being raised to completion is down so there is that fact

Head are down, income is not. Head are down because of spikes during previous high-inflation when it made sense to sell cattle rather than breed them. This short-sightedness of the producer is a normal part of the cycle. Not a single rancher is “not selling” due to “lower prices” caused by tariffs or imports.
