=================================================

Today was my birthday, my kids took me out to eat... I'm 51 today.
That's why there wasn't a post from me yesterday, but I'll keep you *posted*

PS) The other day when I called around Mid Maryland and the Baltimore region for current price quotes paid to us scrapers by the recycling centers (who in turn sell the scrap to processing centers) one guy told me this very candidly:

"We're buying aluminum right now and just letting it pile up. That's why we're not paying as much for aluminum as we were 2 months ago. Right now demand for aluminum just dropped to zero. We're hoping to sell our stock pile next year, but we're not even sure we're gonna be able to sell it next year"



Today's recommendation:

Look for copper... I'm gonna
