hello haim, <<sugar>> i did a good series of fortunate sugar trades Message 24370262 at the beginning of the year and netted 25% in 50 days, and now sugar seems to be back to buy range etfsecurities.com . will ruminate a bit, perhaps tomorrow. am concerned about the different ways the wastrel congress can ruin the market mechanisms and the flow of the force, but know that officialdom manipulation can only matter for a bit and no more than a bit. <<uranium>> have ltbh positions in cameco and energy resources of australia finance.yahoo.com (it has a good story and sits on large unleveraged reserve, although its active mine had been tapped out already; australia had recently signed a treaty with china but not india on uranium supply), and i believe uranium will prove to be a good hoard. i believe many societies will have to take up uranium as fuel, when the moms and pops can no longer afford to fuel basic pleasure of transport. chugs, tj

just in in-tray from commodity god, Player #1: Several centers are already gearing up for this once in a century opportunity. America has dominated commodity trading for over 100 years. US politicians may be about serve up on a silver platter [pun intended] the opportunity for others to break into the industry. There are several stunned groups [stunned because they cannot believe the gift they are being offered by Senator Smoot] and centers leaping to take up the opportunity. Commodities and investors will move out of the US. There may be a correction and a lag, but what an opportunity for both investors [to buy if commodities drop temporarily] and for new exchanges. Buy the commodities and the new exchanges IF Senator Smoot is successful. Short the US exchanges. BTW: Do NOT have a US pension fund. US pension funds will be further annihilated if they cannot protect themselves in an increasingly inflationary environment. Player #2: "Do NOT have a US pension fund. US pension funds will be further annihilated if they cannot protect themselves in an increasingly inflationary environment" That's a very good point, xxx -- in looking at this solely from a self-directed investor's perspective, I tend to forget that the investment funds themselves and the people who will need to rely upon them for their retirement years are going to get left twisting in the wind if they have their hands tied -- that's going to contribute to the social upheaval that's already underway, and it will also drive the economic hardships further up the class structure
