New Hope Says Heat, Typhoons Have Limited Impact; Q3 Hog Prices Seen Better Than Q2
New Hope said on its investor interaction platform on Aug. 3 that high temperatures and typhoons this summer have had only localized, short-term effects on its feed and hog operations across China and overseas. The company noted such weather may modestly support ongoing hog capacity reduction driven by market and policy forces. Based on current hog futures prices, it expects third-quarter hog prices to improve from the second quarter, though the outlook remains cautious.
