well said patriot. Ive been storing ram carbide nickel and cell phone boards since september...carbide alot longer. Its a better investment than anything else.

Heck Ive only been on this rock for 31 years but in 2000 I remember short iron at 75 a ton and sheet at 60. However the first time I put gas in a car I owned was october 1998 and I remember the price... 97 cents. Copper pipe was about a buck and a quarter then too.

My point....this is not relative the fact is for relevance wed need short iron at about 300 to make up for inflation...the dollar is the worst investment in recent history having lost 98.5 percent of its value since .

short term low is great long term low is bad just the same for high....
