I hope rmax covered his short on AAPL. It's up over 8% this morning on a better-than-expected quarter, boosted dividend, and 7:1 stock split.

QuotePerfect time to short (750/550) million tones of US soy bean FOB gulf of mexico.That seems a big trade to me. This marketing campaign's world soybean production is approximately 285 mln metric tonnes.

So..dropped it.
