  • Swine Flu Killing HOGS [View article]
    "Obviously there is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding swine flu – and a fair amount of misinformation being circulated. There is no doubt that eating pork products is unrelated to the spread of swine flu, but that does not necessarily mean that pork products and stocks such as Zhongpin will be shunned and suffer real declines"

    The problem is that people are not rational, they panic like sheep. I would think the fact it is called "swine flu" will have a real effect on pork products. How big? Dunno. But I'd be surprised if it is negligible.
