[$$] US farmers hit by soaring storage costs
American farmers are being hit not once but twice by the Trump administration’s trade war. Retaliatory tariffs imposed by the country’s trading partners have already led to a pile-up of unsold crops — and now the metal bins needed to store the produce have soared in price thanks to US tariffs on foreign steel. Inventories of soyabeans would more than double in the coming year, the US department of agriculture said this week, part of an overall rise in grain and oilseed stocks of 2m tonnes to 104m tonnes.

Such thinking has been going on in recent times as well: For example, the demands from some investors for dividends or higher dividends from FAANG companies Facebook (FB), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Netflix (NFLX) and Alphabet's Google (GOOG)(GOOGL).
