In the classic '80s comedy Trading Places, what commodity do the Randolph Brothers ask Eddie Murphy to predict the future value of soon after they first meet him?

The movie Trading Places famously put a spotlight on the buying and selling of pork bellies by commodities traders in Philadelphia. Early in the movie, Eddie Murphy's character Billy Ray Valentine is asked by the Randolph brothers to tell them if he thinks the value of pork bellies will go up or go down. Billy Ray's answer is just one of the classic Eddie Murphy rants from the 1980s.
