to become Reality, and I had a good plan, I just needed another 20 cents lower. You are so right about the hogs being a tough market. I should say tougher than normal------a tough market on Steroids. It doesn't want to hold a rally together, any longer than it holds a correction. The bull camp is more than willing to buy a new low and also willing to take profits at the top of the range. My hedgers knew this might happen when we put them on but we all agreed that passing on the Hallucination wasn't the correct thing to do either. Win some and lose some, we are all used to that scenario. That's why we have Rules of Engagement, to keep from becoming Road Kill.

We will have the seasonal rallies as we get into the new year but I'm also starting to get the gut feeling that they may prove to be somewhat of a disappointment for what is expected. Just too many fighting for a seat on the Moon Launch that may never break through the Gravity Zone on the weekly and monthly charts. The Swine Fever story may have already given its best results when it hit the news. Now that story is getting very old and stale, maybe too old to give that Launch to the Moon and beyond. The U.S. producers continue to ramp up increased record production, which I believe will setup a "98" type of Bloodbath. Sooner than the scheduled 2025 due date.
