ANOTHER storm in a teacup. Falls on rumours of corruption. Wow! Corruption? That's a new one!!!
And possibilities of a bird flu pandemic which doesn't transmit human to human and if it did it wouldn't be through eating anyway. So what if the panic-stricken dopes among us stop eating chicken, you reduce your chicken menus and serve beef, until the next BSE horror story and it's back to chicken or salmon which is diseased by fish farm parasites. This is assuming we are all around to eat and a total world pandemic originating in frog spawn doesn't wipe out the human race. I have a low opinion of the human race and it gets lower every day.
Of course the hedge funds and the shorters are delighted to pounce on another victim of human stupidity and contribute to driving the price lower by frightening everyone into a financial panic. Not me.
I see everyone is getting out of Florida now. I wonder how many were accidentally killed in the exodus? By the time the storm hits it will have downgraded to a regular tropical storm, it's already down to 3 level. Panic kills more often than the event itself. I wonder how many people are nursing losses on CPG through panic selling this week who will be kicking themselves in six months when the price has recovered? Not me.
