Trying to ride a market just gets you in trouble. Granted for smaller stuff you can hord up IF you have the cash flow is fine...but chasing $10-20 a ton on shred is just silly. It is dollar cost averaging...I get it in, I take it to the yard...I can always turn that money by the time someone hording makes $20 by flipping yard sale stuff ect.

One thing to hoard a few buckets of copper, but steel...by the ton...really? For $20?
