John Egan: My dad manufacturers industrial-type hardware and imports them for sale here in the U.S. He uses a lot of steel, zinc, nickel, and copper.

Captain Johann: Yes, U.S. and E.U. still uses steel, but I think with the demise of the U.S. auto and housing industries, and with manufacturing at lows we haven't seen for a long time, industrial exports are the ones holding up U.S. steel demand...and I would group that in with global demand (China included) rather than U.S. demand. ]]>

Everyday the news keeps wanting to tell people this global development story is over, and you should stay away and let other people make the money off of it, not you. I just remember this family story. My great grandfather, in the 20's, bought and sold (i.e. traded) rice in Taiwan...then some empty thirdworld island. He retired before he was 40 yrs old, owning literally MOUNTAINS our family still has today. That was just a tiny island, albeit it successful now as the leading chip manufacturer in the world. But still, I want to own MOUNTAINS...and the way to getting it is riding this wave...]]>
