Beyond Meat Faces NASDAQ Delisting

Beyond Meat, the once leading light of the plant-based protein business world, is in danger of being delisted from the NASDAQ stock exchange because its stock price has remained under $1.00 for more than 30 days.

The company, which is in the process of removing the word “meat” from its brand moniker, received a letter of warning from NASDAQ on March 4. It has 180 calendar days — actually until August 31 — to remedy the situation or face delisting. Its closing bid price must remain at $1.00 or higher for 10 days in order to be in compliance.

Beyond Meat went public in 2019 and at one point was valued at $14 billion. Its peak stock price was $234.90 in July 2019.and described the legislation as reckless election year pandering that threatens to damage a crucial industry at the center of every American Meal.

Fake News In Texas: Officials Say Deadly Virus Is Not Spreading In Feedlot Cattle

Contrary to rumors spreading in Texas this week, agriculture officials are calling reports of a fast-spreading cattle feedlot virus "fake news." The rumors of a "yield-killer" feedlot virus with a climbing mortality rate in the Texas Panhandle began to spread in online publications and on social media over the weekend. One such report from agroinformacion.com said the news was drawing "immediate panic" from the beef industry, projecting a "brutal" hit to the market.

Several agricultural sources in the state have since stepped in to ease the concerns, saying health officials have confirmed there is no such disease present in the state.
