Saturday with my girl

Not a big fan of pie charts as a rule but this is an excellent use of pie charts 🏆

I keep learning this one. I guess that means I haven’t learned it yet.

See any surprises?

My wife is a good painter and these are three I was enjoying this morning. Poor photography is all mine.

Brazilian jiu jitsu is in the top 3 reasons why I’m in better physical condition and have more actual friends at 50 than I was or did at 30. Plus I have learned some neat skills.

Mostly I learn but occasionally I have the opportunity to teach. Teaching is in my blood. I love it.

Thought of the day. Spreads know things before government reports do. Exhibit A: this year's summertime corn inversion

Sometimes the cheap instruments are great in ways that pricey ones just can’t manage

Beware of your ego. Your ego will jump on every little thing and try to make it all about you.

If you have concluded that basis is anything other than the market derived value of a commodity for a given location and time of delivery, you haven’t learned everything that you should know about basis yet.

Woke up early. There was no worm.

My daughter just fired up her bandcamp site. If you want to support original music written and performed by human beings, you can buy her music there. If you prefer to just enjoy original music by streaming, you can also find her on Spotify. natashaluce.bandcamp.com

I have no crystal ball and every year is its own thing - although similar years tend to rhyme. That said, a plan that hinges on a dramatic turnaround in the N/U corn spread sure doesn't appear to have a strong chance of success.

Just now realizing that 2025 is a year of milestones for me - My 30th wedding anniversary - 25 years of fatherhood - 30 years of working at WhiteCommercial - My 50th birthday - 15 years training Brazilian jiu jitsu I guess I like to start things in years that end in 5 and 0

So far, 50 feels a lot like 49

In the grand scheme of corn basis trading a 50¢, 20¢, and 5¢ Jly/Sep inverse are all sending the same message.
