Rambutan – Food For Forex Profits

Have you ever seen these lil beauties in your local American grocery store? Have you ever considered picking up a bunch and trying them?

I assume not as this would require an open mind, the ability to step outside of ones comfort zone, as well as an appreciation for things “outside of America”.

Not happening then eh? I thought not.

In any case “Rambutan” are a seasonal fruit here on the Yucatan ( yes the Yucatan Peninsula  – so far from the border and all that “American gangsta T.V type border war crap” that even the local Maya here joke about that shit being “so American!”) and are only available for a short period of time in these warm summer months.

Local farmers bring in their “stash” of Rambutan on small carts, set up shop near local grocery stores/tienda’s and offer up this rare treat for a limited time only. They are absolutely delicious, and are much like a large grape in their consistancy.

I’ve now been reviewing my trade performance over the past 3 years and sure enough – come Rambutan season…Kong kills it time and time again.

I am completely convinced that “other than” the alien transmissions I receive via my aluminum space helmut ( fashioned out of local “Modelo” beer cans) the sole reason behind these incredible spikes in account balance – Rambutan.

Truly the food for forex profit.

  1. Ate dozens of these delicious sweet treats while visiting Honduras. Very interesting looking, like an egg covered in a hair shell. Wish we could get these in the States.

    Kong, do you see the recent action in the US dollar as marking a top in the current dollar “bull market” and for it to continue its long term trend of depreciation? If so, do you see that as a possible catalyst for the secular bull market in the metals to resume?

  3. “Fashioned out of Modelo beer cans,” now that’s subtlety funny. Never tried Modelo but see it in the store, should I? I’m a dark beer kind of gal.

  4. One of my favorite grocery store activities is to try a new food from the international section on each trip. I will pick up some if they’re there.
