There is a lot of interest form some very smart people that I talk to in the agricultural sector. Thankfully we have Ned Schidt, Editor of the Agri-Food Value View newsletter focused on agriculture. In this interview we focus a lot on the prospects for ethanol considering China’s move to find cleaner energy fuels.

    Agricultural stocks, Ho, Hum, not a lot of POP there; to each his own. If you are in Hemp stocks nudge, nudge, wink, wink, you can make 30% or maybe multiples of that in a day, I prefer the risk instead of getting 30% a year of you pick the right ethanol stock. Time to go down to the four corners and see the new meat slicer. LOL! DT

    So let’s raise the cost of our own meat production and starve the poor Latin Americans that use corn as a main diet ingredient……….all this in order that we can save the air that is killing the Chinese. Nothing against the Chinese improving their lives but seems to me to be an overall loser to the American dinner table. Someone explain to me why that is good for anyone but ADM and the Cargills of the world!

      Silverdollar, I must agree with you and when I think of all the agricultural subsidies the government gives the ethanol producers, bring on electric cars and stop trying to re-invent the dinosaur. Some parts of the world of new technology are very important, electrical self driving cars which China is the prime mover are very necessary. Ethanol is not a viable agricultural commodity. DT

        Some things have a future, investors who don’t understand this will pay the price. Ethanol and Bitcoin will not have a future. Gold backed blockchain digital currencies will. DT

          You should stick to warning everybody about artificial intelligence.
          Just for you D.T, so everybody can see how absolutely wrong you have been and continue to be.

    Go back and review Dick Tracy’s posts about Bitcoin. How much more wrong can you get?
    The conversation was Ag products,and D.T had to go to Bitcoin. SAD

    From a strictly technical perspective, GBTC is a short nearly ripe for the plucking.

    These are all speedlines on this chart, drawn on the most obvious points, and they have identified all the key turning points so far. The uptrend is losing force, and bearish divergences are pronounced.

    If price from here exceeds the 985 high, or even better the all-time high, while forming a pronounced short-term bearish divergence, that would be a great short, or time to take some profits.

          It’s all good G.H:
          Many people have a lot invested in their own little personal paradigm.
          I have been following your posts for some time and I applaud your tenacity.
          I no longer have the desire to expend the energy to convince those who are so pragmatic,that they themselves can’t realize it is them who are responsible for the State of chaos we are entering.
          Case in point “Show me the proof ” 9/11 deniers with their heads in the sand.Who is suppose to come up with the proof when those who were directly or indirectly responsible for the event were also the ones in charge of providing the truth.

            Good points, John.

            As they say, a word for the wise is sufficient. Though imperfectly, I try to focus on information sharing rather than debating.
