According to DCA Market Intelligence, the powder market observed mixed results in week 19 (May 7). SMP Food is recording the strongest increase amid a more positive sentiment and ongoing volatility in the segment. In contrast, SMP Feed and WMP declined over the week, although SMP prices remain significantly above month-ago levels, while contributor sentiment continued to point to further upside potential for SMP. Meanwhile, the whey powder market posted its first decline in fourteen weeks, particularly in the feed segment, although firm whey protein prices suggest that the recent correction is unlikely to signal a longer-term downward trend.
