    Not sure, but I wouldn't want to be holding any of them right now.

    Blood bath for Silver, Oil, Gold, Sugar etc.

    No

    Buying silver in the high 20's, if it gets that low, will be a tremendous buy.

    Two months ago, called for a $2.00 drop in CORN, to around 5.50 at some point this summer .........currently at 7.00.

          The commodities bubble will burst and commodities prices will reset the next time China's economy has a downturn or recession. Not too sure when that will be, but probably in the next few years.

                    I do think that oil is far too expensive and I have said it all along there will be another recession if prices don't come down to a reasonable price. It probably will rebound a little today so it would not be a shock if it gos up tomorrow.

                        Depending on who you listen to.Obama of course will use every arrow in his quiver to manipulate it where he beats up on gold,oil and silver.To a socialist,hoarding gold is against your religion and it's like cryptonite was to superman.Most gold bugs will say that gold,silver and oil will surpass their yearly highs so far by the 4th of July.They say keeping the prices down on that stuff is like submerging a beach ball in water where it pops right back up.Most old timer economists that say this country is in a depression where Obama's stimulus as well as the feds QE2 of the dollar hasn't budged the real unemployment rate of 30% say there should be deflation down the road where commodities should be sunk.Unemployment at under 9% as Obama likes to claim is an utter joke.Throw all the people out doing makework jobs for the government,consider burger flippers as being partly employed,take into consideration the people who gave up looking for work and you already have a depression.One out of 7 people in this country are on food stamps.The quality of life for your average brainstem who thinks they will work a private sector job and obey all that good government being a good patriotic citizen bullcrap is awful.Each day you wake up to go to work you have less potential than you did the day before.You have nothing but missery to look forward to the rest of your life unless you wise up and become some kind of faker parasite going on SSI disability or something.What incentive is their to be a good and hard worker???Those are socialist tems I hate to ever hear being used.The government loves dumbasses who say they are good and hard workers.Dumb ass idiot worker bees who think they are some stakeholder in this country where everything is that collective group talk of us,we and ours !Haha,it's worse than the dumb ass beer bellied slobs that show up for NFL draft parties with team jerseys on all painted up saying we drafted so and so,our team will be good this year and us bullcrap.

                              I don't like Obama either, but to blame him for everything is moronic. Do you honestly believe our country's financial problems began in 2008?

                              The GOP controlled the WH, Congress, and the Senate from 2000-06. And what did we have to show for it?

                              You need to stick to creating threads calling out NHL players as meth heads because of the way they look.

                                      Sooner than you think. Fishead is out of his mind if he thinks China will keep going until 2017. China will blow up most likely in 2012. If it's not 2012 it's going to be later this year or 2013. No if's ands or buts. They will blow up and all the gold bugs will get pounded.

                                        You are right, the stuff didn't really hit the fan until 2006, when congress went from conservative to liberal. I'm not the biggest fan in the world of Bush but he did try and do good.

                                        - He tried to reform Fannie/Freddie/housing bubble but Barney Frank was 1000% against it ( and recently admitted he was wrong).
                                        - Bush tried to reform Social Security but the Party of No Democrats blocked everything. If you are under 35 years old you won't see a dime of the money you've been pumping into social security. If you are financially stable and 40-45 you might not either.

                                        He also took over during tough times. Bursting of the Tech bubble and 9/11. He took over an economy being pushed off a cliff.

                                        Bush made mistakes, Obama made lots of mistakes. What's your point?

                                          Gas above $4 dollars per gallon is a huge tax on the US consumer. Not what the economy needs right now.

                                            I have to ask this because I dont think you have a clue.

                                            What do you think is driving the price of crude right now?

                                            Do you really believe it is Obama? Seriously?

                                                Update: Corn crop in Southern Minn and Northern Iowa is slowly getting planted because of cold and rainy weather. Corn Yields will be down if this weather continues.

                                                  Not one.

                                                  You think you do. But then again, you were the same moron who used posted about the "deferment of your career".

                                                  So tell the board. What drove the price of crude up? I can't wait to here this answer.

                                                  P.S. Google is your friend here. Use it wisely.

                                                    I've never seen you post an intelligent comment. It's always bashing other posters and attacking other posters. You're a troll with a miserable life.

                                                      We haven't planted a single acre yet. Normaly at this time of year we have 350 acres done. If no more rain comes and it stays windy it will be a min 5 days until fields are dry enough to start doing anything.
