  • A Good Thing: Agribusiness Future Isn't Golden  [View article]
    I don't see the point of comparing these two.
    If you want to judge the usefulness of a gold investment, talk about that.
    If you want to talk about the future of agriculture, talk about that.

  • Dividend Aristocrats Will Continue to Outperform [View article]
    Outperforming the S&P is good.
    However--big problem! Returning -18% is nothing to brag about. In fact, it's a good argument against investing in stocks at all.

    But it gets worse. If you argue that the outperformance is still valid because the S&P will go back up, then you have to believe that cap gain is going to be a big positive--which negates the advantage of a dividend strategy.

  • Five Reasons to Invest in Agriculture [View article]
    Your reasons sound good, and I had several of them in mind when I went long in DBA a few months ago. But the fact is, it's been range-bound since November, with no current sign of any bullishness, despite all those good reasons. Ergo, there are other factors keeping it cheap, which have not been articulated here.
