Stuck.....
Will try to go with more Chinese fertilizer with CGA (China Green Agriculture), long, for this week. Do not believe it is fully ready to emulate YONG's perfomance of last week.,, yet believe it should begin to creep up.
They do not report until early September. Expect a very good report.(fingers and toes crossed). Let's make some dough!

[ModE98]

Well. kadee, at least we got a good start on the week. Perhaps it may be only one day above the BenchMark, or can it be we can hold on.

[architecto25]

Clark, Scottrade has the same $open numbers as you....(all 13 entrys)...but the overall market treated me rather poorly today;........wonder who I can blame that on .... LOL.

[Bluerobin]

I am blaming Paul Ryan! Why not?

[ModE98]

Must be challenging for last place after today's fiasco. Oh CGA, what went wrong?

[clarkrl2]

kadee66 stretches her lead a bit. blackliver moves into second with ModE third.

Git outta my way!!!

[ModE98]

Hmmm, not as bad as expected. Glad CGA was a bit slow coming out of the gate yesterday. Hope he can find his traction again soon. Will reshoe him tonight.

[ModE98]

Oh me, getting worse, may not even stay above BenchMark today. <Needs to pilfer some of 'Ole Blue's supply of magic oatsl.>

[clarkrl2]

Down the backstretch bimetalaupt takes the lead by a neck. kadee66 is in second on the rail and blackliver is three lengths back in third.

[ModE98]

Tomorrow will challenge uncle and BHB for last place. Horse looking for a boost, so may have to apply the whip. Probably to no avail. Think he wants to go back to the barn, the lazy cuss.

[Bluerobin]

Carrots! Get your carrots!! <<< goes to magic oat field, only to see Mod is already there>>>

[ModE98]

Good grief, CGA got into 'Ole Blue's carrot field overnight, snubbed the magic oats. Dratted fool.

Hey, wait a minute, last place honors is not bad. What strength,holding up everyone.

Mid-afternoon update... 'Ole Blue, quit messing with my horse! <he came over a gave CGA some smelling salts>. Now CGA is moving forward once again.... chances to be a hero may fade if he keeps moving up.

[clarkrl2]

Coming out of the turn kadee66 maintains the lead. 2kids10horses moves into second only a half length behind and blackliver is third.

Wow, did make it..... It was a lot worse for awhile. Could have been -8 and change %.
Love Chinese agriculture prospects, so down for now, up later. Rattle 'dem bones and just do not crap out.

[Bluerobin]

Foul!!! I have been fouled! Someone fed carrots to my horse!

[ModE98]

Double foul, somebody tied an anchor to my horse's tail. He's way back of the pack.
