Presently, the actual stock market isn’t worth looking at.  Unless you are wanting to buy.

      It looks to me like goat breeders need to treat the semen sales like the stock market.  You about need to buy a bunch of straws on up and coming bucks BEFORE they hit a big lick.  This is not a novel idea as I know of several breeders that have been doing this–some just for themselves to use and a few that are buying it, storing it and then selling it when it gets high.  Sure.  There is some gamble to it.  But let’s be real, this whole industry is a big roll of the dice.
