An unusual reload after a huge loss. At a certain point, you might as well bank the loss and shoot for a reversal. Please see my blog for my critiques of and alternatives to the current incentive structure that agitates for idiotic gameplay like this, as well as some delectable bonus invective (my favorite recently, a don't-let-the-door-hit-your-ass-on-the-way-out comment from someone with TMF in front of his handle -- tasty!)My original pitch:>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Short fertilizer on soft-landing demand slowdown, clueless ethanol rally. A huge loser so far, but in CAPS, who care? My ranking is driven by accuracy alone now, so a -1 is the same as this -30. Eventually I may reload, to try capturing more "accuracy" (gag) points on the way back down, but I think I want to lose a few more points on this name first.What does it tell us that under the current incentive structure I currently have no incentive whatever to have made the "right" call on this stock once I had a negative point locked in?It tells me the system is broken, but I welcome defenders to reply to this pitch or on my blog.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

go ahead and short mon, tnh. Put your exp. where your month is

MON is not a fertilizer name. I am short TNH. I copied your reply over to my pitch there. If you would like to explain your investment thesis, that would seem a good place to do it.

I'd love to engage you folks, but to do so you'll have to try writing something with a hook to my pitch, investment thesis, or any replies here on TRA. If you don't, my apologies, but I don't speak incoherent.
