Growth in Corn Harvest Means Good News for Ethanol Producers [View article]
You want some comment, Shenadoah, so I will oblige. Corn is still at $5, and most of the ethanol plants were built when corn was at $2. A good friend who has contacts at local ethanol plants told me that there was no way ethanol was going to work if corn stayed at $5, and then it went to $8, and is now back to $5. Sure, $5 is better than $8, but that just means the losses will be smaller. And what if McCain is elected, and the mandate goes away completely? What then?
I own ADM also, but if the ethanol mandates and subsidies go away, I will be a seller.
'Hey-Where are all those ignorant negative posts which usually follow any article on ethanol?' Now there is a real inteligent comment (not), from someone with a very non-open mind. Grow up! No one has all the answers, but those with as closed a mind as this, will never learn anything new.
