• Bonds: Duration dependent, but yields sideways-to-up• 10-Year US Treasury Yield today at 2.37 and ends 2018

at 2.85 and higher in 2019 • Dow Jones Industrial Average, grinds higher with

consolidation and/or correction periods, with more price strength than weakness

• EFA Global Equities – excluding U.S. and Canada, continues building momentum

• EEM Emerging Markets, continues building momentum critically important for healthy commodity prices

“What is the Market Impact”• Near Term or 2018 (chart pattern dependent on global

stability)

• $CRB Index, Commodity Index, Aggressive Government and Central Bank intervention policies will continue elevating economic activity and commodity prices in the aggregate

• $WTIC Light Crude Oil, a complex market having more strength than weakness in 2018, thus positive for the commodity sector

• $USD US Dollar Index – more weakness than strength • Commodities, land, fine arts, etc. new highs following

equities up• Corn, soybeans and wheat build a base and have more

price strength than weakness in the first half of 2018, due to global growth, value, concern over anomaly uncertainties, like weather, military friction, etc.

• 2018 long grain rice acreage increase needs to remain in a range of 15% to 24% increase

• Reality is with no new demand [and if LG rice harvested acreage exceeds a 15% increase over 2017 acreage or 1,086,750 acres] one should expect increasingly downward pressure on LG rice prices, so plan accordingly

Assuming 2018 169,000 harvested acres

Concluding Thoughts

4

U.S. and Global Governments and Central Banks

• Present domestic and global policy adequate to overcome:• Chronic global slow growth• Low to negative interest rates

(Assumes social, political, trade and military stability)Policy intervention should enhance 2018 Global Inflationary ForcesSupporting rice and grain prices• Assuming no major over-production. Over-

production would be bearish pushing prices back toward 2016/17 season’s lows

Concluding Thoughts

4

U.S. and Global Governments and Central Banks

Current Policies likely extends the business cycle one possibly two to three years and avoids a near term US and Global recession

Page 40: Arkansas’ Rice Situation and Outlook - Delta Farm Press C... · 2009 1,470,000 2008 1,395,000 ... Top 4 AR Long Grain Rice Counties by Harvested Acreage ... 165 1987/88 1989/90

Concluding Thoughts

4

Marketing challenges of policy intervention

• A 1-year Business Cycle extension will create a complex chart pattern & increase the complexity of the market decision

• Assuming a 2 to 3-year Business Cycle extension will create even more complex chart patterns and marketing decisions

• Why the complexity? A key policy focus will be minimizing asset bubble damage with managed flows of stimulus

• 2018 long grain rice acreage increase needs to remain in a range of 15% to 24% increase

• Reality is with no new demand [and if LG rice harvested acreage exceeds a 15% increase over 2017 acreage or 1,086,750 acres] one should expect increasingly downward pressure on LG rice prices, so plan accordingly
