Once again............mostly a nervous twitch.......

quote "A refinery upset, a change from winter to summer blends, an economic slowdown - all impact a traders view of the supply/ demand balance and the price level. Even within the US, regional prices move independently based on regional supply/ demand factors as minor as a pipeline shutdown or a terminal mishap.



So lets see, there is say a big asssss storm on the USA east coast, so bread goes to $7 a loaf, and stays there, and bakeries slow down bread production to keep it up at an acceptable $5 a loaf as that's sure cheaper than $7?

I guess yeast and flour providers need their 5%+ a quarter profit too.


not trying to stir the pot, I'm just another bee drawn to the honey, or is that a moth to the light?
