balls of the wall for like two years of just Madness two and a half maybe of just you couldn’t do enough you couldn’t move enough you couldn’t I mean it was just well it’s been just a weird four years since you know since March of 2020 till right now yeah it’s been just a weird up and down battle and and everyone in every sector felt that you know absolutely um but I mean the people I talk to my manufacturers My Demo guys my toe guys like there’s stuff moving through all those channels which is a good sign in the grand scheme of things you know like I said I’ve seen it a lot better I’ve seen it a lot worse you know nothing like alarmingly bad cuz you know the bad times it doesn’t feel like that’s coming like it’s some doomsday people might want to tell you that’s coming I don’t see dude at the end of the day like people make a lot of money telling you how crazy this world is and how much things are going to come and and disrupt everything and I’m not saying that they’re not I’m
just saying that I’m not going to stop until something does yeah like that’s just the way that it has to be I can’t if you sit around and you’re scared of your own Shadow all the time like you’re just waiting for something bad to happen because some Guru on the internet told you that the ocean’s heating up or the whatever you know I mean come on he’s sitting in my at my house worrying about that I can’t zero control over it I do have control of somewhat control of what’s going on up here you know I try to control that stay positive control what I can control get as much work done as I can be efficient you know help our team be efficient you know and help our customers also be efficient so I think United medals wise Tire reclaim wise all our reclaim divisions like we you know we’re out there picking up scrap and tires every day picking up copper copper reclaim had a pretty big pick up today so pip selling pipes moving moving Freight and trucks we’re you know we’re managing storage like we do a lot right but
it’s only because we’re we’re not afraid to get up every day and go do yeah so I everybody I mean like I know this podcast supposed be like what’s the price of scrap today we’ll get to it three minutes stop being a and go to work like figure out how to Fig like I don’t know just make it okay make it okay to fail don’t have major failures where you’re going to to a company and have to shut the doors you know take risk fail and learn from your failures and then just also make some wins in there too you know I think that’s what people have to enjoy enjoy it’s a short you get a short really in your whole grand scheme of things like your work window your life window like it’s really a short we’re both in our 40s now man I feel like I blink you know I was in my 20s when I for snowboard and break my hip oh everything’s good man price of Copper’s up today had a good uh you know when it was down in that low 370s it’s really rebounded we’re I mean we’re
damn near back to 390 yeah um looking good if we get to that $4 I think I think it’s coming I think that $4 is coming I feel I feel the same cuz we’re at 390 with a strong dollar too right well and I mean China I feels like they’re trying to you know push their economy I mean I’m not here to argue whether how they’re doing it’s right or wrong I’m just saying like they’re putting money into it they’re trying to you know they’re they’re trying to control their stock market which has been getting hammered so I mean they’re one of the biggest consumers of Base Metals copper being one of them right so that bodess well if they get their economy going you know yeah you know you’ve got India out there that’s pushing you’ve got a like a lot of export opportunities and I think that you know this this strong dollar might and probably will last longer than maybe a lot of people anticipate it so you H if you have good export options you know good export strength out there then you know that that’s going to be good
for base medals um we’ll see what the future holds but right now I mean I was just reading a report that they’re going to put some some tighter sanctions on Russia so that’s pushing the aluminum market and the nickel Market um whether how whether that all comes to fruition and what that looks like think they’re supposed to announce it tomorrow we’ll see but I think the the pricing standpoint um it it things are tracking in the right direction yeah any news on Ferris I have do not have any news on Ferris it’s soft right now we’ll see it’s going to be a demand demand thing but got a few weeks truly like two more weeks till we have any Clarity some clarity on them maybe three weeks I don’t expect some big up month let’s just say that and in the spring they’re I’m not going to give it to you cuz scrap usually flows a little bit better flow just increases over here um okay well everyone keep grinding take chanes chances you know and keep winning yeah focus on the good have a great day thanks everybody
