 Do they just have a ton of paper short positions, or are they just liquidating current spot holdings? This seems ripe for ending very poorly for them. 
 I would be lying if I said I knew how or why they do it 🤷 . I just know I've read about it and seen it happen enough that I moved my stacking to right after... 

Agree that shorting the corn is stupid but this is what hedgies do 
 Fair. I didn’t know if ZH had done any deeper analysis. 
 I don't have any articles handy but they have done more research and they post about it frequently 😉

 Fair enough. I’m excluded from the walled garden so I’ll just trust you. You’ve done enough proof of work on here to warrant it.
