Cotton - how do you find time for this stuff? - do not get me wrong it is all great info, and you give insight to those of us that can read into it and can not find time, accept burbot et all - but how do you do it?
Burbot, agstar - who ever, will you be greatfull for takeing $2/bus less than the average world price for wheat this year? Keep suppoeting those wheat borad slobs boys.

Time?

Whats that?I got rid of a watch along time ago,set me free.

Most,dont love economic data,i do.

Others spend time doing things they hopefully love.

Just watch a few episodes of the prairie farm report entitled inventions,blows my mind every time.

But i'm more worried about the yen carry trade.

Would they know what i was talking about?

Would you Furrow?

Different skill sets and interests.

The new knowledge to back the broad based takes very little time.I can draw charts in my head now.And navigate the internet and pertenent info in minutes.

The broad base is where you seperate the men from the boys.Thank god sask winters are long and cold.Takes time,like attaching two tractors together.

Financials is the mother of all things finacial.

99.9%of people who are in it,dont understand it.

Maybe i dont?


But i sure the hell know i was the the only person to my knowledge to say 20 dollar wheat,way before it happened!


And..........

When anybody here wants to discuss



-the disfunctionality of the bond market
-the ppt
-the otc derivatives
-oil
-gold
-us current account deficits
-us budjet deficits
-fannie mae
-freddie mac
-m1,m2,m3
-inflation


I'm ALL ears!

[just_wondering]

I worry about white stones in black clouds, different skill sets I guess.
