After those floods this spring I thought the price would go up. Must be a good yield.
No, crop overall isn't in good shape. But demand is way down as we're being undercut by cheaper corn from Brazil as well as hundreds of millions of pigs in Asia have died from Africa Swine Fever. They can't eat corn if they're dead. And the trade war isn't helping either.

Just pray for major calamity in Brazil.

I'm going to do a rickyb-ish thread here, posting what's going on in my little corner of the investment world. Was inspired by an angry old codger to do so. :)
I've moved 80% of my 401k into cash. Why? Because:

1) Average home prices compared to average income is approaching pre-crash levels.
2) The bond curve has dipping here and there into inversion, rates low across maturities.
3) S&P 500 p/e hanging around 20
4) I don't know what the fn¢k is going on

Don't try to time the market, just make a plan and stick with it.
