Fundamentals of Potash

Great information - this is the best piece I've read about potash to date. Thanks for the excellent research.

Potash and Agrium Targets Slashed - UBS Analyst

i for one don't blame the analysts for this one
it's easy to unload on them when they're way off
but i think anyone who has actually tried to valuate POT or AGU will realize that the current valuation is just ridulously low.. P/E of 5 for AGU?
yeah most ppl could see the commodity bubble bursting, but i didn't see that kind of P/E coming either
i'm pretty sure i would've laughed if someone told me AGU/POT were gonna have forward PEs of less than 8 way back in June

The Real Reasons Fertilizer Stocks Are In the Dirt

you've written an informative piece and my hat's off to you for that

i don't think much has been said here that hasn't already. yes the earnings estimate were aggressive on these firms, and yes these firms were undervalued. but this was all true even before the 25% plunge yesterday.. the market is nuts, period

at this valuation it's about time to buy in.. you could wait for another coupla analysts to revise estimates downward but that's really just timing a bottom, and no one can do that perfectly

short term you'll have to stomach volatility but this should be a fine play long term

Potash Corp. Earnings Shouldn't Peak Until at Least 2011

i think we can all agree that the fundamentals for POT is good
the question then becomes do we like its valuation? any thoughts on that?
