What happens if the US crop doesn't meet current expectations...there is some wealth to be created there...

bucket, yes if the U.S. crop doesn't meet expectations that could certainly turn corn prices higher. Soybeans and wheat, not so much. U.S. continues to lose market share in both these markets. But the U.S. crop is now getting passed the frost-risk stage and USDA claims yields are rising. We'll see . . . .

Brazil has gained an added foothold in this trade war. Investors have moved in improving Brazil's infrastructure. These new roads won't be torn up anytime soon. The Midwest has been hurt and this will be difficult to repair. Trade is based on building long-term trust.

Brazil is a key resource pipeline to China. Next will be the African continent . . . it has already started.

What, Fedex not flying as much ChiCom junk around the world, than they're used to doing? You mean more countries are buying less crap from the ChiComs that ends up in our landfills after 10 months? You mean more of that crap will be made in America, and will last 3yrs, 5yrs, or 10yrs, rather than 10 months?
Maybe there will be a recession, if when you by something and it lasts 5 yrs, instead of having to buy the same thing year, after year, after year. Imagine audacity in something lasting more than a year.

Are there nuclear weapon manufacturers I can invest in? With all the years of continual doom and gloom talk, it sounds like I might make a killing on such an investment.

Just because they build them, doesn't mean they'll use them.

Why in phuck does every company believe they have to make record profits every year just to please the shareholder. Just look what that has done to John Deere and in turn affected anyone who runs their Chinese made crap. I used to think they made good equipment now all I do is call the service man to fix computerized electrical glitches a few times a week. When the hell are these companies gonna get back to making stuff that’s reliable and not farm every part out that’s made in a third world toilet then charge a 100 times the price when it gets back to America so the shareholders are happy. What about the stake holders who have to run this shit and try and make a living doing it. They shud have let all these donkeys go broke in 08 and the problem would have fixed itself eventually. GM is another prime example. The CEOs of these companies shud choked for running businesses into the ground and having the nerve to pay themselves a shit ton of money for doing a shitty job. Our system is just buggered. Brutal

It,s the way the huge wages for the CEO's of the work.

Bonus at +1% +2%+3% growth.

Millions over base.

Raise prices, raise returns, Millions in CEO bonus. Bring a new guy in if it slows down and around we go.

I thought the I-States needed another 2-3 weeks for corn to be past the frost risk stage?
