So why do you insist on fighting him? Listen, hippy — you can disparage Monsanto Company [[MON]] all you like, but the fact is, that like the other chemical company everyone loves to hate The Dow Chemical Company [[DOW]] (or was it E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Company [[DD]] , I can remember?), Monstrous Santa brings good things to life, up to and including radioactive carrots as big as your thighs.
No, no, that last was just a sop to the active imaginations of the Luddite Hippy Masses (“LHM’s”) who think that unless you are breaking ground with a sharpened stick and planting only hand gathered (never plucked! never, never plucked!) acorns in erratic rows, you are insulting “Mother Gaiea” and any manner of other animistic woodland nymphs and faerie (sic) creatures.
Fact is Monsanto is going to feed the world, and the world is going to thank them for it. Everyone except the LHM patchouli smoking minority and Luddite millionaires like Paul Ehrlich of course, who — along with propagandists Al Gore and Howard Zinn — makes money off of predicting world wide catastrophes that they can blame on our globe’s foolish lack of proper Marxist ideology. No, these guys would rather the people of the Amazon basin continue a slash and burn stone age agrarian methodologies, as long as that means they don’t become part of the “problem” — i.e, enrolled members of the First World.
The Euros hate Monsanto too, but for another reason. Their agricultural protectionism makes ours look like the open bazaar in downtown Marakesch (sic). They don’t want seeds from anywhere else but European soil, because, damnit, other countries’ seeds might actually push those lederhosen-wearing cough-drop suckers into the second half of the 20th century, four-cycle tractor engines and all.
But there’s a reason this seemingly high beta outlier lives in the stronghold that is the Jacksonian Portfolio, and that’s that feeding people will become an ever more dominating issue in this world of destroyed capital and increased liquidity. Monstrous Santa has the intellectual property keys to solving that issue, and, barring a late hour nationalization as part of the Obamacare bill, their shareholders will benefit from that IP for years and years to come.
I’m not including the Jacksonian update from yesterday today, as I am too damn busy reading obscure legal documentia (sic) from third rate mouthpieces, and I’ve got other shit to do today as well, not the least being egregious “Continuing Ed” dealing with subject matters with which I will never in a million years have interactioin. Gotta love bureaucracy, even in the private sector it assails me.
Know that Teck Cominco Limited (USA) [[TCK]] should be considered on this pullback, as should all the gold and silvers pulling back today. Thompson Creek Metals Company, Inc. [[TC]] continues to be a monster, and it’s a Jackson full throttle again. Ag-homey The Andersons, Inc. [[ANDE]] also stirs again, with its sister Monsanto. Eldorado Gold Corporation (USA) [[EGO]] holds serve on the PM front, and I like Allied Nevada Gold Corp. [[ANV]] , Rubicon Minerals Corp. (USA) [[RBY]] and [[BAA]] here as well.
Out for most of the rest of the day, be well. And always remember:
