Sweet Wednesday


This is the fourth day in a row with light volume and it appears that we might see the beginning of a sell off.  The news around the world is trending negative.  The Chinese stock market has been down 5 days in a row and is now negative on the year.  The Chinese are also dealing with a dead pig problem.  In the Huangpu River they have fished out 6,000 dead pigs, they are not saying where they came from.  There has also been 50 carcass’ found in the Hubei River.  If we are hearing these numbers, one can only guess what the real numbers are.  The USDA is also considering buying 400,000 tons of sugar to stave off loan defaults of $862 million in loans that were given out 9 months ago.  That is ridiculous. Again the government is interfering with the free market and will try to keep sugar prices artificially higher than they should be and those costs will be passed on to the consumer.  You gotta love the government.
