Jim Roemer

Jim Roemer owns the site www.bestweatherinc.com offering free (and subscription based) weather related blogs for commodity traders, institutional hedgers, farmers and small investors.

He is a featured guest on Bloomberg TV/radio, a contributor to Seeking Alpha and is co-founder of Climate Predict, LLC, the most detailed, long- range global weather forecast model in the commodity industry. He was one of the first meteorologists to become registered as a Commodity Trading Advisor. Mr. Roemer has worked with major hedge funds, Midwest farmers and traders for over 30 years. His unique ability to forecast both short and longer range weather trends, with a special emphasis in interpreting market psychology and major market moves in grains, softs and the energy markets, has made him a global industry leader in commodities.

Trump Media $DJT reportedly generated $3.4 million in sales over the last 9 months. The company now has a market cap of $7.5 Billion (yes, Billion), which means it is being valued at more than 1600x sales. For comparison, Nvidia $NVDA trades at 38x sales. Probably Fine 🥳
