<<One problem that I have with the Beyond extreme price volatility of this year...... we should have a whole slate of companies that are going to blow up due to this insane price volatility and all the ways to lose endless streams of money in all this volatility>> Take a look at almost all the raw materials. Who the heck can plan 6-18M out when prices are doing what they've done? Place the wrong bets or hedges and your biz is toast. Guy who thinks he's doing something smart ends up seeing 6 months later that he's screws his profit line for the next 18m or more. What's the answer?....Composite materials made from base & waste materials, that's the ticket, imho. 1/2 the weight of Aluminum, 3x stronger than steel..got it? The whole key is the next generation in production that is not batch and not expensive. For instance, carbon fiber today is made in a process that is 300 feet long, multiple steps and uses lots of energy. Why not make it in a 20x20 space w/ 1/10000th of energy used -- stay tuned!!
