THE CORNAPOCALYPSE IS OVER

This summer brought great gifts of drought and low crop yields. As a result, ag prices screamed higher and protein stocks tanked.

Over the past three months PPC is down 31%, SAFM is down 18%, TSN is down 16% and SFD is down 20% year to date.

The time for half measures and cowardice is over.

Based upon historical precedence, this is not a good time to buy protein stocks. During the months of September and October, historically, they’ve been serial underperformers, which is why I will buy them with vigor and imperious tenacity (extra Costanza!). The protein trade, mind you, will be my next thesis trade, climaxing during the gluttonous month of Thanksgiving.

Thus far, I’ve purchased about 500,000 shares of PPC, a starter position, in order to get accustomed with the caprices of the fucked-faces who trade the name on a daily basis.

Due to The Great Corn Scare of 2012, ranchers and chicken fuckers were forced to cull and kill their stock early, unable to feed their ugly faces thanks to inadequate feed supplies. That trade is over, seemingly. Moreover, I believe the beaten down nature of the protein sector has exhausted itself and will enjoy a revival, based upon my un-shakable belief that humans, particularly of the unseasonable American variety, enjoy to stuff their fat-fucking-faces, continuously, without regard for decorum, wellness or temperance.

    Forgive my political rant but this needs to be said on this upcoming Memorial day with America on the verge of a fiscal cliff, a war on America that the media seems unwilling to speak of, and on the eve of a countdown to elections:

    I heard people pick on Romney for being Mormon, yet they ignore the true threat to America, the possible re-election of Barrack HUSSEIN Obama

    Fact: The US and western world faces a threat from radical Islam, AlQaeda, Hizbullah Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Taliban, Iran etc.

    Fact: Barrack HUSSEIN Obama is, according to Islamic law a Muslim based on the fact that both his biological father and adopted father BOTH are Muslims.

    Fact: ‘Muslim’ was listed on his school record when he was a boy growing up in Indonesia where he went to grade school (Indonesia by the way is the country with the worlds largest Muslim population). The Arabic word ‘tekia’ is a term in Islam that means lies/deception that is allowed against the infidel non-Muslims to fool them, and it is okay to lie and say you are not a Muslim to non-Muslims in order to gain power.

    Fact: Media has given him a free pass on his questionable background and his associations with radicals like Bill Ayers and Rev Wright, the fact that his father and brother are both Muslim, because he is a radical leftist, and the mainstream media is generally left wing.

    Fact: His “Christian” Reverend who Obama claims ‘not to know that well‘, Rev Jeremiah Wright (the same guy who is buddies with Al Sharpton, the Black Panther and who said “Damn America”), was his reverend for 20 years and performed his wedding for him, yet he had the ‘audacity of dopes’ to claim in the 2008 election that they ‘weren’t close’.

    Here’s one of the few mainstream articles I could find on this:

    http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2012/08/30/media-declares-open-season-on-mitt-romney-mormon-faith/

    Part of it reads:

    “During an interview I conducted with the Reverend Wright for my book “The Amateur:Barack Obama in the White House,” I asked the pastor if he had converted Obama from Islam to Christianity. “That’s hard to say,” Wright replied.
    Wright then went on to say: “I think I convinced [Obama] that it was okay for him to make a choice in terms of who he believed Jesus is. And I told him it was really okay and not a putdown of the Muslim part of his family or his Muslim friends…. And even after Barack and Michelle came to the church, their kids weren’t raised in the church like you raise other kids in Sunday school. No. Church was not their thing. It never was their thing… So the church was not an integral part of their spiritual lives after they got married.”

    Fact: Before the election of 2008 if you referred to Obama by his middle name (Hussein) it was considered politically incorrect and unfair, yet RIGHT AFTER the 2008 election was over he proudly referred to it (naturally that has died down now in 2012 election season). He has also been the most anti-Israel president in US history, distrusted by a staggering 97% of the Israeli public (both right and left) who are convinced he is a Muslim due to his policies vis a vis Egypt, “Arab spring” (Islamic Spring) and the literal and figurative bowing down to Muslim leaders.

    Fact: Just TWO DAYS after his dubious birth record (what many say are doctored birth records by the way) was released, he ordered the killing of Bin Laden. Coincidence? A possible theory is that media attention quickly left and shifted to the Bin Laden situation. Remember when he needed to, Hitler sacrificed Rohm (think night of the long knives), Bin Laden was a threat to Obama’s desire for a new order and had to be sacrificed as well, though Obama does NOT like opposing any Muslim leader he had to be sacrificed so he could play the ‘I’m fighting terror’ (bullshit) card.

    Fact: This man apologized for American ‘colonialism’ on a world apology tour right after the 2008 election, bowed to the Saudi King, and on an open microphone he thought was silent, told Pres Medevedev of Russia: he’d have “more flexibility after elections” (implying he would further abandon US allies and shame and endanger America.)

    Conclusion:
    If you don’t vote against Obama, you are voting against America’s future. Please do NOT vote for this man!

          Haven’t you ever heard of “money for nothing and chicks for free.” I think he was talking about rock stars but I know several athletes, kite boarders and surfers, that are having the world handed to them just like that. Then this other group, Zero, says “nothing lasts forever.”

        M81x, I take it by your ignorant remark that you are of the foolish belief that Islam threatens ONLY the Jews, yes? So I guess the wars and terror involving the Phillipines, India, Chechnia, Chad, Serbia, Pakistan, Sudan, Darfour, Afganistan, 9/11 etc are all because of the ‘zionists’ (code name for Jews). I think you’re running late for your ‘Bundt’ meeting…

            I already did, in fact I’m an expert in it. Your ignorance brightly shone through when you referred to Israel as “Arab land”. In fact, Israel is NOT located in Arabia. The ONLY sovereign state in history for the last 3000 years between the Jordan and Mediterranean is Israel (‘palestine’ was a Roman termm after the province they named Judea (Israel) rebelled in 70A.D.).

            Also nearly half of all the Jews living in Israel are Arabian Jews (Jews from Arab landas such as Morrocco, Yemen etc.)

            Look either you just don’t know the facts and your not a bad guy in which case I recommend you read what an Arab named Shoebat, an ex-terrorist himself says here: http://www.shoebat.com/

            Or you DO know the facts and you simply just hate Jews (in which case I refer you to Razor’s comment ).

            I never argued about ‘Arabs’ (whom I happen to like by the way), I argued about Muslims and whether Obama is one of them – and the evidence is that he is.

            The Romans named it “Palestina” after the Jews historical enemies (from Biblical times) the Phillistines. These were not arab people but likely a type of Greeks. The romans gave it this name to purposely sever the Jewish connection to the land (after they put down a Jewish rebellion against Roman rule and murdered thousands). Although that obviously didn’t sever that connection in Jewish culture throughout the ages, that was their intention.

            It clearly had nothing to do with some arabs of the modern day world who since about the 1960’s have referred to themselves as “Palestinians” naming themselves after the British mandate of “palestine.” (The anglicized form of roman “Palestina”) A name which at the time of the mandate itself, all the arabs there resented and insisted was not their name. (During the British mandate period, Jews living in the mandate were called Palestinians. We still have passports from those days to prove it for you skeptics who have been misled by the rewritten history over the past several decades). Comically (or tragically, depending on how you look at it), the same arabs who insisted they were not palestinians and not to be referred to as such, today insist that not only they are so-called palestinians but so are their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren born in other countries decades later. Only an idiot or completely ignorant person gobbles up the kind of deception propagated by the UN and the arab propaganda machine today.

            That was amazing. Yes, in fact the term ‘west bank’ which has no real meaning as it refers simply to any land west of the Jordan (so it could be taken to mean Tel Aviv as well), is a P.R. term invented by Jordan in the 1950’s, since they did not want to refer to the land as Samaria and Judea. Why do the prefer ‘west bank’? Because the word ‘Jew’ is actually FROM the word Judea, and it just doesn’t sound good to say there should be no ‘Jews in Judea’! The so-called leader of these Muslims who call themselves ‘palestinian, was terrorist Yassir Arafat. Where was Arafat born? Egypt. His uncle, by the way, haj amin al husseini was a Nazi supporter (google the name Mx81), and a dear friend of Adolf Hitler who many have said gave Hitler the idea of death camps rather than relocation to Israel for the Jews.
            It’s shocking when you hear the misinformation out there, but it is all true.

      With all respect due to you Fly (and you know I have a LOT for you), your blog is a MUST read on the markets, there are some issues which transcend even ‘making moolah’. I was nearly killed on 9/11 and many of my friends were murdered while Muslims around the world and in Israeli territory celebrated. Those are the people Obama supports and I want people to know that. The fact is that Radical Islam wants the world to be ‘Dar Al Islam’ (conquered by Islam).

      America as a free country will NEVER be accepted by them and it is a mortal threat to us all. A phobia is irrational, I do not believe this is. Either Obama is one or not; if he is and is lying about it (and there is a mountain of evidence he is) then the American people have a RIGHT TO KNOW BEFORE they vote in a second term where he will never have to face the voters again.

          Instead of an ad hominem attack, why not dispute the veracity of my statement? Ah yes, because it is true…
          By the way, I believe Obama will also continue to bring financial ruin to the US. QE was a failed attempt to ‘wallpaper over’ the problems in unemployment and the economy that Obama has exacerbated (and Yes Bush is responsible as well).

        Moolah,

        I certainly agree with your points, but the whole “Obama Is a Muslim” thing just prompts ridicule from these self-conscious leftists.

        Instead let’s face facts that it really doesn’t matter what religion he is or isn’t, secretly or openly. Based on what I’ve seen, what things he says, Obama is most likely an atheist. So nominal religious “affiliation” is irrelevant. He’s clearly not a religious person.

        But what is not irrelevant, what is very very relevant, are his political allegiances. Islam is not merely a “religion” where people just worship a God and that’s it. It has a clear political agenda as well. You referred to some of this with comments about Dar al Islam. It is very clear that Obama is allied politically with Muslims both in general worldview (including his perception of Jews and Israel) as well as political agenda for the world as a whole. That’s with regards to the US, Israel and many other issues. And it is clear he will “stand with his brothers” such as Farakhan, Jeremiah Wright, etc when the going gets tough.
        Or just say it in Obama’s words: “I will stand with the Muslims.”
        Is that Islamophobia to quote his actual statements?

        It is not about religious belief or affiliation. It is all about political allegiances and beliefs.

          I could not have said it better (and in fact I did not). Not only the ‘Islamic’ worldview, but the ‘America is an evil colonial power’ that must apologize for it’s greatness as well as his disrespect for the US Constitution which has become evident is truly revolting. As investors we should also note that getting a few dollars (via ‘implied’ though not real QE) to prop up the market (until Nov 6th that is) is NOT worth selling out our country. Well said Mad Scientist…

      Anyhow, I DID say that in my opinion I predicted Bernanke would NOT do QE3, that he would instead try to talk up the markets for his buddy/boss Obama as tough as he could, and that I thought the markets would figure it out.

      Judging by the look of the futures market, it looks like that may be happening, so score +1 for me as well…
