Markets are slowly building momentum as Valentine’s Day demand begins to take shape. Beef inches higher, chicken keeps climbing, pork waits for its next move, dairy tests a rally, and grains remain quiet. The coming weeks will show whether this momentum sticks — or stalls.

BEEF: Production pulled back last week as middle meats begin their seasonal climb toward Valentine’s Day. With strips already charging higher and end cuts showing mixed signals, this market feels ready for its next move.

POULTRY: Chicken prices keep pushing higher with no real resistance in sight. But a major jump in avian flu losses adds a new wildcard that could shift the story quickly.

GRAINS: Grain markets continue drifting sideways, weighed down by ample supply. Until demand shows up in force, this quiet pattern looks set to continue.

PORK: Bellies hesitated just as a rally seemed ready to start, leaving pork in value territory a bit longer. The question now is how long this pause really lasts.

DAIRY: Dairy keeps rallying, but recent trading raises doubts about how strong this move really is. The next couple of weeks should reveal whether this run has legs.
