What's max pain on MVIS this week, maybe $3.50 or $4? After last week, I'd be happy to see it pegged to $3.50 in four days. |

Would this, plus what you list above push the peak back much? Looks like early june peak last year; 1-2 months after seeding? North Dakota will be planting well into june this year. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Osprey61: Great video. Couple of points...the shorts (and competitor's stock holders) are already hyperventilating about the cooling fins. Guess I'd be attacking something...anything...I could at this point. They're being used because the testing is being done with a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), instead of the ASIC the unit will run in the final config, which is much cooler. They really should have spared a few seconds to do a little technical explanation, but I understand keeping it at the whiz-bang level for a PR video. Some talk about overclocking for testing purposes too, but I'd be lying if I understood how you run a computer faster than it's intended limits. The only manufacturer doing complex scenario, high speed maneuver testing. That's huge, and should have been foot-stomped, too. The "highway" design Volvo is testing only allows the system to be turned on when the system says it's safe to do so, and the parameters turn out to be highly restrictive. After one of Elon's autos hit an aircraft a day or so ago he has to be watching this pretty closely...or at least his engineers are. You really begin to understand how incredibly complex this whole enterprise really is...computer vision, and active computer guidance based on that input is next level indeed. Starting to understand why Sumit says in many aspects this parallels the actual computer revolution. @2:00 into the video appears to me to be a great reason why you would want LIDAR over traditional camera detection. driving from a bright area into a dark tunnel, we all know how it takes a second for our eyes to adjust to the "darkness" and cameras only have so much WDR that they can apply so I'm guessing that that parked van would be somewhat hidden from a camera on that moving care edit: LOL, should have watched the rest of the video before posting. |

What's Twitter going to do at open? Agreed purchase per share is $54.20. Stock is at $51.93. Is it even going to trade or is it closed?

Yesterday was a good dip day. Got more DAC at 74-75 and ZIM at 49-50. Not sure where we're headed today though, could make yesterday a brilliant idea or the 2nd best dip this week so far. And, MSFT reports earnings after market close. I wonder if we see the same price action at the close and first 5 minutes after, to be able to do a flip like last time |

(And what about the opposite - war ends?) There is most likely a global covid re-opening component here as well keeping a cap on supply. No, although the market may react like there is. Nitrogen fertilizer is extremely cyclical. Demand goes up as more people eat Western diet and also simply with mouths to feed. It increases slowly every year. Every plant is trying to run 100% all the time. Due to historical under investment, we reached a tipping point with demand>supply end of 2019. COVID masked it for a year, as ethanol demand fell big time. Building the next big plant, probably in Middle East, hasn't started yet, will require 3ish Billion in capital, and 4 years. Then supply will be greater than demand and price will plummet. No one has broke ground yet. The UKR/RUS deal just accelerated the end game, which is sky high prices. If you look at retail prices, all started marching up in Nov/Dec. They haven't really moved since the invasion. Mr market may have a different option, but this is a longer game. Retail here. UAN is about 20% ammonia tons and 78% uan32, with a sprinkle of urea. |

Ya, the 10x ebitda minus debt is real. The past and future quarters: 22, 66, 140 (we are here), 260, 415, 455, 517. I imagine the ratio will soften, but I can't see a way they aren't $400 in Dec. This quarter will be 129MM, replacing 4MM, and a $4 distribution replacing a zero. Next quarter should be 230MMish and a distribution of 24ish replacing $1.7. Q3 will be softer, as both plants have month long maintenance, but should still double the Q3 21 distro of 2.93.
Putting in futures for natural gas and urea for 2023, I get $60+ in distributions. |

One last UAN note. After the distribution is announced, if it is large, watch for crazy option volume. Some one big plays a game in which pinning the price ex-date to options expiry maximizes their profit. They have done it 3 quarters in a row. They take advantage of option holders who do not excerize to capture the dividend, when that is the most economic move.

UAN trying to break out - re your comment on non traded shares- I have an interesting one - TFSL (a savings and loan) is held 81% (I think) by a MHC mutual holding company and not traded! Look at it as a publicly traded corporation that bought back 81% of it's shares. I got in on that one in the event the MHC buys back some or all of the traded shares, and it pays a really nice dividend And I looked and seems the 81% might be as high as 87% or so. |

Correct, but be aware the current waiver is authorized only through, I think June of this year. They renewed it last time, (and there is a 1.13 cap on the waiver) If not renewed then I would expect a dividend decrease of some type, so for that risk assume the worst, meaning plan for it to reduce to 28 cents +-. Normally I hold stuff for the passive income, this one does that now, but there is an asymmetrical upside if certain actions take place. Its interesting enough to be a small holding |

We tend to think of recessions as fairly short-lived events. The 2008 housing crash seemed to stretch on forever, but the recession it spawned was mostly over 18 months later. If you want to read about something really scary, look up Japan's "lost decade". Or better, don't.
Biden appears to be laying in deep-rooted, systemic damage that may not be easily - or quickly - mended. I try to turn off the media when the gloom becomes too oppressive...thank goodness summer is almost here, I can think of almost nothing more salubrious to the soul than fishing, whether the fish cooperate or not. |

Does Twitter have a break up fee in the deal?
