'The world is on a knife edge in terms of supply and demand,’ proclaims agricultural derivatives trader Bill Plumber. ‘If we have a crop failure, honest to God, I don’t know how the world is going to handle it.’1
Bill is speaking on a ‘hedge fund TV’ video channel, where legends of the managed-money trade share their wisdom. He goes on to explain how he’s going to handle food scarcity – to his advantage. ‘As an ag trader, I’m looking forward to the most exciting years in my career. Instead of boom and bust, it’s going to be boom and back up again.’
