Shares should not drop, INP.V will have land assets and then the will either sell them, or borrow against them to redeploy more streaming funds for the next progressive canola farmer to utilize.

I think farmaholic is right, credit of last resort. But they are no different than a main bank, they're not gonna loan you money without security, so why are some getting down on input capital? They're doing their job, if you don't like it don't borrow money from them, if you pay them back then no problem at all. Silver wheaton does this successfully in the mining world, bit of a diff. is they take some of the raw product at a pre-determined price.

Farmaholic and others:

If Input Capital is loan sharking then tell me how some of these so called "lease" companies are financing farm purchases.

When you can lease something with almost nothing down then I think we have huge problems.

Lease is debt, no matter how you look at it.

Input capital are dinks. In memory of Hopperbin

Oh I have no idea. I would expect no as he always talked about how he had great service and option with local CU

I just used a quote of his to express my opinion of companies like input capital

Like others have said, this is a last resort financing, maybe people in this position should look at a recovery of assets, not rolling the dice and risking it all or what's left

Shares down 45% this morning. They have a lot of "assets" and stand to gain a few hard assets. Might be a buy when it bottoms out from an investment point of view

To those with learning difficulties: Input is a loan shark because it is like having operating loans at 25% interest with land as security. Bank operating loans are at prime or prime 0.5% with land as security. So you are letting them have an almost risk free deal at 25% interest or more. Even the Mafia can't compete with this bunch.

Btw most of the same type of farmer can't tell that the only thing that changes on machinery from year to year is the decals or the design of their hoods.
