Wow!
All I can say is wow. This permabear is fully in the bullish camp. Our crop "round here" looks respectable, but some of the corn was rolling today. Normally I don't get too concerned with corn rolling in July, but the tile lines are still running and corn planted over those tile lines means no root system. Our rain forecast just keeps getting slimmer. Turn the water off and it could be worse than last year. On top of that I took a trip to northern Iowa/Southern Mn for the 4th. Thousands of acres of black dirt or planters in the field on July 4. One thing about the American farmer is he will keep trying.
The trade is wrong. I can admit when I am wrong. Apologies to the bulls.

Re: Wow!
I appreciate that, we are all wrong at some point. I am worried the dollar value is going to trump all. .85 after .72. That is a chunk of the move. It is the only reason I hedged this yet. Good luck on your crops.

Re: Wow!
Right. I still say less than 12bbl WITHOUT problems. Guess what - the problems are already here.

Re: Wow!
wrestler, I don't think you are wrong. But the weather is just not going to let you be right------- this year.
Good general rains did not materialize this year. Instead we got dry weather patterns --------- dumping a lot in localized areas and patterns where the same area gets it over and over in the same pattern while other areas get missed continually.
But the big issue is still the late, super cold, freezes that took 5 weeks of growing season from us.
2012 was a great marketing year. 2013 is setting up to be a great trading year. We could see some big swing opportunities.
