Yes hopper, I got $14000 for a 35 year old tandem at Schapansky's this Aug.

Hmmm...sense a trend here,short commodities(grains) and long equities. That trade actually started a couple of years ago, may be coming to an end... Funny how it has expressed itself here.

I traded 500 bushels of wheat for an old service truck. If I d have kept the wheat might have been stupid enough to seed it. He seeded it and can t sell the crop. I m driving my junky truck around.

Bought 90 feeder calves for $620 each and sold them 150 days later for $1500. That's on the real stock market. Not the pretending one that just shuffles money around.

It's likely also a once in a lifetime deal.

Good for you, Kato. You also carried the risk, but you probably have years of experience feeding cattle. Congrats. You deserve it. Pars

[Hopperbin]
