Weekly Market Update for 11/06/26
Valuable insights on the latest market price changes for eggs, butter, cheese, and cream products.
Here is a look at the markets:
Eggs:
Eggs – The markets continue to move upwards with Thanksgiving approaching. The Northeast large market is up .19 over the prior week while mediums are up .07. Retail demand has improved and some sizes like mediums are tightening.
Butter:
Market prices are weak. There appears to be stronger demand out west, but there is plenty of butter available. We are at the low point of the year and that is very unsettling for buyers. With the strong production, the US needs to keep exports moving and with the weakness in the EU/NZ that can only be accomplished by continuing to lower prices.
Cheese:
The block cheese market started the weak stronger but leveled off on Thursday. Still the market should finish $.03 – $.04 higher than last week. Both EU and NZ prices have rallied higher as well. US cheese exports have held pretty true to forecast, up 11.9% year over year for September.
Fluid Dairy:
Prices on heavy cream are lower for November, but slightly higher on sour cream and cottage cheese. Prices on half & half are mostly unchanged.
For the most complete lineup of dairy products, count on Sommer Maid for quality, consistency and value!
