US data prompts debate over meat export rise
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's data has sparked attention with a record-breaking increase in American beef export sales, which reached 126,062 metric tons during the week ending June 25, 2026. This marks nearly a 500% increase compared to the previous week. The department explained that these figures include transactions that were made earlier but not reported in previous reports due to delays in reporting. However, some traders have questioned the accuracy of these numbers, suspecting input errors. The data is expected to return to more normal levels in the upcoming report, as beef exports have been declining since 2022 due to rising prices and reduced supply.
