#730 - “Noise, Cash Burn, and the 2026 Pivot” - Weekly Market Outlook: Dec 1st - 5th

Veteran analyst Pete Meyer joins Chris Barron for a candid breakdown of today’s markets. We cover the flash-sale uncertainty, missing USDA data, CFTC delays, fund positioning, and what they actually mean for grain prices heading into December. Pete explains why soybeans will lead, why corn may not follow, how to think about stock-market spillover, and why production rallies are meant to be sold and demand rallies respected. We also dive into the on-farm realities: working capital erosion, sticky overhead, crop mix decisions, and how to approach 2026 with practical risk management. If you run a business, manage acres, or simply want a grounded view of what lies ahead, this conversation is for you.
