Monsanto's CEO on Growing in a Recession <> <> It almost sounds like science fiction: Amid the furious discounting among retailers, one firm has been able to raise prices as much as 25 percent on some products. Its stock has managed to climb this year, despite a volatile market. What’s more, the company has supporters claiming it can cure world hunger and critics accusing it of endangering the global food supply and environment.

Every time I write about Monsanto Company (NYSE: MON), I get e-mails from vocal opponents of genetically modified foods. It strikes me as unusual, if only because there are so many companies out there doing business in an ethically questionable manner, and I'm rarely e-mailed about most of them. But, hey -- I can't blame anybody for being protective of the food supply. <>If you're morally opposed to Monsanto, I definitely don't recommend you invest in i...

<> 
The accompanying table presents a 20-stock defensive growth portfolio which I believe will outperform the overall market as measured by the S&P 500 Index as the current panic trade comes to an end and investors stop selling stocks regardless of their fundamentals. The average PEG ratio for this group of stocks is below one and the average dividend yield of 4.4% is nearly two times the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) yield of 2.4%. All of the stocks have a market cap over $1B with an average of just under $75B and the indust...

A few months ago the other hugh grant offered up a doubling of profits over the next 4 years. GM crops are becoming more and more prevalent in todays society. With most regulatory concerns addressed and the WHO's constant reminder that we don't have enough food for the entire world, what has been dragging this stock down lately? I think Goldman-Sachs put a target of about 140 on the stock last year. I don't think that is too unreasonable. Are most investors balking right now because of the P/E ratio?

Monsanto (MON) - Good Results, Expectations Very High

-45.29%

Monsanto (MON) reported very good results this morning, although a bit light on the revenue line - expectations just are so high for this name and at 40x forward estimates it's a quite rich valuation. Fortunately to offset the light top line number, they raised earnings guidance for the year which is helping to support the name to a degree in pre-market. For stocks priced to perfection you need to hit on all cylinders and a perceived revenue "miss" would of dropped the stock a bit more, but the raised guidance will help offset any major long term worries.
