Tight cattle inventories at a 75-year low of 86.2 million head as of January 2026 have constrained beef production, driving the BLS average price for 100% ground beef to $6.899 per pound in April—up 3% from March's $6.701 and nearing the $7 threshold. USDA's latest May WASDE report cut 2026 beef output forecasts to 25.547 billion pounds amid fewer fed cattle slaughters, projecting 10.1% retail price inflation (range 2.8%-18.3%) on elevated Choice beef carcass values near $400 per hundredweight. Robust demand sustains pressure despite broader food CPI moderation; traders eye mid-June BLS May data, May 23 Cattle on Feed report, and quarterly WASDE updates for signals on year-end peaks.

The St. Louis Fed bases its numbers for ground beef prices on the BLS's CPI release. This market will immediately resolve to "Yes" upon a qualifying update of the St. Louis Fed's chart. If no data for any month of 2026 is released by the scheduled date for the January 2027 CPI release, this market will resolve according to the data for 2026 already available at that time.
The resolution source for this market measures prices to the third decimal place. Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market.
