[AT] Local sawmill with huge inventory

[Dean VP]

Steve,

 

This isn’t that complex relative to Sum Ting Wong.  With the current demand outstripping supply here in the NW sawmills can name their price which would be far and away exceeding any contractual price they have with overseas customers. The SUM Ting Wong problem is the lack of Greed. Or loyalty to local NW customers who will pay more.

If I'm the owner of that sawmill and the Chinese are outbidding domestic buyers, I'm probably taking the Capitalist route and selling to the highest bidder.  Not that I have any real idea what's going on, but I'm just running off the K.I.S.S. principle, and that makes sense to me.  Not sure what kind of conspiracy would have to be playing out if there's Sum Ting Wong.

 

SO

You may recall I recently was stunned to see more inventory of cut lumber at a local saw mill than I had seen in years.  It just totally was inconsistent with the lumber shortage vs demand driving up prices of lumber by unheard of percentages.  Well, I learned a little bit more about this inventory of lumber.  It is not for domestic consumption.  It is headed for China.  How does that float your boat?  It really, really  **&^%#'s me off. Sum ting Wong.
