What no price predictions? Not even price trend direction? Have we lost hope? I suppose a battering in last 18 months has interest softened to submission.
Fingers crossed for FHA! (With selfish motives) I predicted a 8 year slump in prices before we started increasing prices again. It has been about 8 years since 2014. Similar pattern from '97 to ' 05 However, the change in that time period came from expanding into new markets of Russia and China. Not expanding into new markets anymore? China appears to be able to control prices these days and will work hard to keep them low. A local mink rancher ( who has since pelted out) told me in 2015 it would be depressed for 7 years I hope he knows more than you. Lol. China has benefited from low prices that came amidst oversupply. Hopefully as supply is corrected pressure will push prices. Don’t know what’s left for demand on high priced furs. Time will tell. There appears to be light at the end of the tunnel, with inventory being liquidated For that I am optimistic.

We need the consumer nations' economies to fire up. For that we need crude oil up over $75 a barrel probably. I think were getting there.

Nah, he's just realistic realizing all the money that the Trump administration printed followed by the Biden administration doubling down and the effects that the coming devaluation of the dollar will have on fur prices.

I sent in a string of coyotes and a sack of rats for this sale. The hope was that they'd open the country by now.... The last sale, with pictures evidently, was somewhat encouraging. I think the rats and coyotes will do OK. Marten still in the freezer.

Does anyone have their account updated to show your fur yet? I sent fresh fur in April and my account isn’t showing it yet. Nope not yet, the accounts are not updated until the last catalogues are posted. It usually happens fairly fast after that.

Steven I have no rebuttal and I actually agree with you. The point was made some time back that I made my point about FHA and NAFA and should let it go and I said to you I will let that go when you let go of the printing money thing. Just showing you that when something is frustrating it is frustrating. Time usually don't change that unless what was wrong stops happening. FHA is still having online auctions and the US is still printing money. Oh and it has nothing to do with Trump now so we can drop that too. lol, LLL

Nope not yet, the accounts are not updated until the last catalogues are posted. It usually happens fairly fast after that. Usually in the past accounts would at least show quantities of fur received well before the auction, then grades would show up when the catalogues are posted. I'm not even seeing quantities received yet.

I’ll be trapping come December, it’s one of my better habits. With some luck FHA will put a spring back in our step. It’s overdue.
Markets are delicate and complicated I’m shocked that trappers aren’t more curious about the forces that drive their activities. Read a trapper survey. Most trappers primary motive is not economic. So market forces do not drive their activities; entertainment value does. Most are scoring points on how their fur grades, not what it sells for. If they scored on what it sells for in the year 2021 they wouldn't be happy. They want to be in a happy place.
