Continue seeing the Row Crops

as an across-the-board BUY

Especially Cotton & Wheat

 

With Stocks, Precious Metals and Crypto all getting hit hard, I can only regard the upward tilting strength in Corn, Cotton, Soybeans and Wheat as indicative of something big beginning to happen on the upside.

 

Start with this…The weather, obviously of major importance in crop production, has been erratic and IS already beginning to become a factor for the current planting and growing season here in the USA…

 

·  U.S. winter ranked 2nd warmest in 131 years

·  The West had its warmest winter on record

None of the above should be ignored, and I believe is one of the underlying reasons for the strength we’ve seen in all four markets almost since day 1 in 2026.

 

In other words, irrespective of if we experience abnormal weather (never a positive for crops), THERE IS ALREADY A WATER/MOISTURE SHORTAGE that is certainly not what you want to hear as farmers begin planting ANY of these four crops.

 

To some degree, at this specific moment, I DO have an immediately stronger opinion about BUYING COTTON AND WHEAT…RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW…and will therefore limit this newsletter to recommendations in those markets today.

 

Buy July Cotton


I FIND IT EXTREMELY IMPRESSIVE that the Dow made its all-time high on February 10 at 50,512 and has since fallen 5000 points...but during that same time frame Cotton has been creeping steadily higher...And I believe, AFTER A YEAR OF TRADING IN AN UNBELIEVABLY TIGHT 7 CENT RANGE, HAS AN ABSOLUTELY EXPLOSIVE LOOK. I've drawn a 15 cent move from here (chart following), but as I have repeatedly pointed out, Cotton has a 50 year history of making 30-50 cent swings (minimally) when it does go somewhere...which IS what I think is beginning to happen…and RIGHT NOW.

BUY WHEAT

 

Which may be feeling the most direct impact, so far, of the moisture shortfall in the Western Plains.

Lots of ways to buy all of these…Contact me if you want to talk possibilities…or about anything else that’s going on in the markets.

 

Thanks,
