Jim “bowtie” Rogers is getting rolled on today, as everything from metal to corn gets tossed into a gasoline fueled bonfire.
The carnage is severe, following the shitty eps report from The Mosaic Company [[MOS]] .
In short, deflation has gripped hold of bullshit commodity stocks and killed them. For awhile, the faux inflationary effects of oil/gas/corn inflated commodity stocks, making people fear for their rice supplies. However, thanks to the kickass worldwide banking failure, farmers no longer have to worry about Monsanto Company [[MON]] ripping them off.
However, there is a severe price to pay for this bubble popping, such as massive deduction of tax revenue for the U.S. government. Hell, the oil industry was the only sector left standing. Now that they’re fucked, expect to see even further municipal shortfalls, causing more infrastructure projects to be canceled.
As for the farmers: those idiots will be participating in Farmaid concerts, within 2 years. The credit crisis is killing everything. God willing, the GOP will shoot down the bailout (spiteful Fly wants everyone to be punished for their ignorance), effectively causing unemployment to spike north of 10%.
Already, thanks to the The Boeing Company [[BA]] strike and auto meltdown, 4th quarter GDP will come in at -1.5%. Write it down.
Look, if General Electric Company [[GE]] and Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. [[GS]] has to pay out 10% yields for a Buffett golden seal, what will General Motors Corporation [[GM]] or Citigroup Inc. [[C]] have to pay?
Look out below.
Finally, the carnage in ag plays is spectacular, which includes: CF Industries Holdings, Inc. [[CF]] , Potash Corp./Saskatchewan (USA) [[POT]] , The Mosaic Company [[MOS]] , Monsanto Company [[MON]] , Lindsay Corporation [[LNN]] , Valmont Industries, Inc. [[VMI]] and Agrium Inc. (USA) [[AGU]] . In addition, all basic resource stocks and mineral are being ape raped. I cannot find it in me to buy this dip, after get “coal holed” in Walter Industries, Inc. [[WLT]] .
The fucking farmers are screwed.
NOTE: [[SMN]] is north of $60.
NOTE II: This commodity sell off further emboldens my bearish position on Vulcan Materials Company [[VMC]] , Eagle Materials, Inc. [[EXP]] , Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. [[MLM]] , Texas Industries, Inc. [[TXI]] and Caterpillar Inc. [[CAT]]
