<> Potashcorp ( POT ), the largest fertilizer company in the world with dominant presence in potash fertilizer, is a winner riding the agriculture boom for years to come. There are at least half a dozen of reasons why it is a good play but three should suffice to make a case:
1. A surge in more protein-oriented diet in developing countries
This notion is not new. With substantial increase in income and wealth, meat consumption in China has increased by 600% in the last 30 years and there is no end to this growth in sight. According to a study from Purdue University, Chine...

Global demand for food goes up with both global population growth and standard of living improvements in emerging markets. Availability of land for crops goes down with the same factors. Increased yields seems like the only way to keep up with population growth. So fertilizer seems like an obvious long term holding.
Shorter term catalysts:
- reduction of agricultural exports from Russia due to drought
- possibility that US will increase ethanol requirements in fuel

(closed on 08/18/10)
Filed under: Earnings Reports, Stocks to Sell  If you are looking for a textbook downtrend, you need look no further than agricultural giant Monsanto (MON). Since hitting a high just above $85 in early January, Monsanto has been on an uninterrupted escalator down to $45.
Unfortunately for Monsanto, today's disappointing earnings announcement is going to do nothing to help change that situation.
Monsanto announced that it only earned $0.70 per share last quarter -- compared to the $1.25 per share the company earned last year. So earnings are off by 44% while the stock price is off by 47% this ye...

The news is a major relief for AMAG as no new clinical trials were required and the quick decision deadline before year-end is encouraging for the approval prospects of ferumoxytol.

Fertilizer demand will increase as the world population grows. Also algae based energy technology will explode eventually where bio-density is critical and requires large amounts of fertilizer. As with all non-renewable resources (mines) demand will eventually grow faster than deposit and harvest technology.

I started buying Potash at $131 per share and have bought twice more, averaging down... My average share price is now $108 per share. If Potash continues to remain near or below this level, I am prepared to buy once more, in order to further lower my average purchase price. <> I believe that we are heading toward a period of rebound in the general market, following an extraordinary drop. I was in the Crash of '87 and ultimately did very well, by holding my positions, over the next few months.
