Illinois | You know the flip side is with six trillion committed to build/open plants and companies, you would think there would be just as much bullish reaction. While there was some it is clearly not proportional. More of the chicken little the sky is falling mentally.
Another observation is I keep seeing a lot of grumbling about the trade agreements negotiated the first term. Trade agreements negotiated have two sides, meaning there was a buy side agreed to by these other countries. Just why do you think the grain prices in the previous four years were so eroded? Did these countries honor that side of the deal? Did they hit all of their commitments? Was the government awake and capable enough to enforce the agreements? Try to look at things thru a common sense lens and not what talking heads blow about.
These issues didn’t just happen in 48 hours like the last two days of trading. The last two days are excruciating, and ag is taking it from all sides. Are all these moves correct and will work out? I have no idea, but we sure can’t survive in doing the same status quo.
Hopefully, most saw the writing on the wall in the last four years and properly prepared to ride it out. Many will and have taken the buy opportunities as they present themselves. Perfect example, and I would guess many took full advantage of. It was on farm fuel and oil stocks when oil went to zero.
This was not intended to be political just questions that need to be asked. JMHO.
