Agtech is mammoth alright but, the players in it are already well established and ingrained in it to allow newcomers any landscapeto compete it appears so, best to concede and just get to unicorn status fast and then taken out by BASF,Cargill's, Deere's, Microsofts or Nutrien's in this vast landspace at <=$1billion USD. https://upstreamaginsights.substack.com/p/2021-digitized-acres-by-company

Farmers Edge will never become profitable according to a reliable and gifted source out here in the Western Canada Fertile belt. This one can scale tho Solinftec if any one is interested in Digital Precision Agtech.

Fyi this maybe quite interesting. https://www.fortuneindia.com/investing/budget-booster-for-insurance-sector/105116

Next up hopefully is Zargon, and then the great literally Underwater Nuclear mine Denison; as these tulips of mine sure could get Nutriened locally out my way here. Bronze medal pick is the lovely Golden Band Resources. Any other good pic's folks? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-28/tiny-driller-skyrockets-959-after-reddit-craze-spreads-to-oil?utm_content=business&cmpid=socialflow-twitter-business&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=socialflow-organic

Nope! Now if only PDH would do something right for once eh OurKid? Ha!

I am flabbergasted in today's market so, CASH is King for me know Wow!

Petec I was responding to Parsad's suggestion that Prem and a vanilla FFH equity purchase has/was a better bet then Buffet's products when their is possibly more valuable non conventional bets ( i.e. outside the box and or on the edge ) that end up geometrically more valuable then just an arithmeticical mean value.

But, the OTM Leaps on BRKB since it's lo in past 2 year period might likely have been a better asymmetric return too date here?

Yes. I browsed thru this early this am for a start to DD. https://www.cer-rec.gc.ca/en/data-analysis/canada-energy-future/2020/results/index.html

Farmers Edge loses money so, this is good to dump off to public asap it appears. This week Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail reported that *Farmers Edge is filing it’s prospectus to go public with under writing from National Bank. In other words, it might not be long until we get access to see the financials of a large agtech company looking to go public. Farmers Edge is 50.4% owned by FairFax Financial, a publicly traded organization, so there is a small peak into some of their numbers via the FairFax Financial quarterly reports and annual reports. Even with assumed numbers and metrics across agtech that might not scream “IPO!”, there is one thing people do want right now: Exposure to tech stocks. Couple this with the growing interest in food and sustainability and with the buzz from TELUS’ agriculture play

I sat with the Ceo of Bangalore airport in Jan 2018 when a young employer had to present a shatty presentation because the CEO could not make it and I was very impressed and others in our group were not HAHA

Adapt, adapt, and then re- adapt to survive I suppose eh! Big Ship(t)'s take forever to turn around but,some of us can turn on a dime my friend ha! Stay safe and avoid a strangers breath near you maybe eh!

Pick door three Monty said lol? https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/20/health/virus-vaccine-game-theory.html

Survival is hard to define I suppose folks. If I was paralyzed I have given my caregiver the proper authorization to end me legally fyi! My choice not you folks ha! Yet you will probably intervene if this come's too most likely.

Good point so, our we all wearing an N95 mask with a daily disinfectant change required what what millions in our bank accounts tho ha???

The full citation for the uninformed pandemic Dorks around here posting their uninformed opinionated thoughts in a field their ignorant in very much so today here my guess here only tho eh ha! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK525302/?report=reader Go World Junior CDNS'sgainst Fin's today to finish off preliminaries' in EDm P.S PAC vs Steeler's would be a classic.

Here is some well written words on a Pandemic for the Uninformed one's beaking off today here fyi Lol! Consequences of Pandemics Health Impacts The direct health impacts of pandemics can be catastrophic. During the Black Death, an estimated 30–50 percent of the European population perished (DeWitte 2014). More recently, the HIV/AIDS pandemic has killed more than 35 million persons since 1981 (WHO Global Health Observatory data, http://www.who.int/gho/hiv/en). Pandemics can disproportionately affect younger, more economically active segments of the population (Charu and others 2011). During influenza pandemics (as opposed to seasonal outbreaks of influenza), the morbidity and mortality age distributions shift to younger populations, because younger people have lower immunity than older people, which significantly increases the years of life lost (Viboud and others 2010). Furthermore, many infectious diseases can have chronic effects, which can become more common or widespread in the case of a pandemic. For example, Zika-associated microcephaly has lifelong impacts on health and well-being. The indirect health impacts of pandemics can increase morbidity and mortality further. Drivers of indirect health impacts include diversion or depletion of resources to provide routine care and decreased access to routine care resulting from an inability to travel, fear, or other factors. Additionally, fear can lead to an upsurge of the “worried well” seeking unnecessary care, further burdening the health care system (Falcone and Detty 2015). During the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, lack of routine care for malaria, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis led to an estimated 10,600 additional deaths in Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone (Parpia and others 2016). This indirect death toll nearly equaled the 11,300 deaths directly caused by Ebola in those countries (WHO 2016a). Additionally, diversion of funds, medical resources, and personnel led to a 30 percent decrease in routine childhood immunization rates in affected countries (UNDP 2014). During the 2009 influenza pandemic, a greater surge in hospital admissions for influenza and pneumonia was associated with statistically significant increases in deaths attributable to acute myocardial infarction and stroke (Rubinson and others 2013). However, during a pandemic, distinguishing which deaths are attributable to the pandemic itself and which are merely coincidental may be impossible. During the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, facilities closures as a result of understaffing and fear of contracting the disease played a large role in lack of access to or avoidance of routine health care. One study of 45 public facilities in Guinea found that the Ebola outbreak led to a 31 percent decrease in outpatient visits for routine maternal and child health services (Barden-O’Fallon and others 2015). Among children under age five years, hospitals witnessed a 60 percent decrease in visits for diarrhea and a 58 percent decrease in visits for acute respiratory illness (ARI), while health centers saw a 25 percent decrease in visits for diarrhea and a 23 percent decrease in visits for ARI. In Sierra Leone, visits to public facilities for reproductive health care fell by as much as 40 percent during the outbreak (UNDP 2014). The availability of health care workers also decreases during a pandemic because of illness, deaths, and fear-driven absenteeism. Viral hemorrhagic fevers such as Ebola take an especially severe toll on health care workers, who face significant exposure to infectious material: During the first Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 1976 (then called Zaire), the Yambuku Mission Hospital—at the epicenter of the outbreak—was closed because 11 out of the 17 staff members had died of the disease (WHO 1978). During the Kikwit Ebola outbreak in 1995 in the same country, 24 percent of cases occurred among known or possible health care workers (Rosello and others 2015). During the 2014 West Africa Ebola epidemic, health care workers experienced high mortality rates: 8 percent of doctors, nurses, and midwives succumbed to Ebola in Liberia, 7 percent in Sierra Leone, and 1 percent in Guinea (Evans, Goldstein, and Popova 2015). Even if health care workers do not die, their ability to provide care may be reduced. At the peak of a severe influenza pandemic, up to 40 percent of health care workers might be unable to report for duty because they are ill themselves, need to care for ill family members, need to care for children because of school closures, or are afraid (Falcone and Detty 2015; U.S. Homeland Security Council 2006) Stay Safe and Sane all!

Not a plausible staement Castanza as the second shots to most have not been administered as of yet!

Cardboard has me thinking real hard today as maybe I'm the Ponzi @ the Poker table here maybe? As I have invested in all three of Sanjeev's mention's ha!

I was fortunate or unfortunate to be present in Bangalore airport when a group of us die hard Koolaid drinkin Fairfaxer's were dining in Jan 2018 and an employee not the CEO gave us a 1 min PowerPoint pitch of Digit and most were displeased with his foresight/insight's tho, I was extremely impressed ( he was very young as in a 20's aged digital imprinted person and most likely knows his future customer's better then most their in my opinion ) but WTF do I even know here. Stay Safe all whilst Covid 19 peak trough is being witnessed currently in NA maybe!
