I was thinking the same thing as well, then I read how they were testing other animals for the same infection (I guess you can have mad pigs and mad chickens as well?)
Cutten, Jack Shwager (the guy who wrote Market Wizards) also wrote fundamental analysis of the Futures Market. I own a copy and there is +-30pg of info on SOybeans. I think you could find it at your local library. Or go to Borders and read it for free.
Well, I don't know squat about beans, other than I eat lots of them in various and sundry forms. Ahead of doing some research, the chart looks very extended and it sounds like everyone from the Coffee farmers to the Cornhuskers can switch into beans if the price is right. So I guess my question to the board here is ... Anyone Dare to Buy Beans at this level?? Somehow the answer, and my course of action, seems obvious.
