Revisiting Iron. Last month I mentioned Iron and derivatives had the right conditions to rise

BDRY went up 42%, and FSUGY 25%. With others seeing all times highs.

But we may be entering speculative territory.

The Baltic Dry points to alot of shipment in Iron's lanes so supply should be good, yet price is still going up, so not oversupplied.

Futures so high should point to shortages. Maybe due to Aus/China trade war.

In short: No idea whats going on, but there is money to be made

I applied for a job and received an offer from my client. 15k+ bump in salary, better benefits/remote work, and responsibilities will give me exposure to all areas of the organization (start up). The problem is that they’re looking to staff me as a Senior when I’m currently a Manager at DT. They said they’re flexible on title, but curious to hear how others have navigated similar situations. I would report directly to the controller and have 1-2 staff reporting to me...
