Ten Reasons Why I'm Waiting to Buy PotashCorp

PS the Loonie is at historic highs against the US dollar, if our buck blows up more, this conversation is moot cause it will teardown the Candian economy much like the internet bubble did.

Ten Reasons Why I'm Waiting to Buy PotashCorp

Nice work on your article but please go back and do some homework. All you reasons for why POT should be lower were valid 5 plus years ago when I first found this stock on my stock screener. My home work lead me to believe the stock was over valued according to my metrics. I watched it double and by looking at the chart you know its been a real winner, and you do concede that it could easily double in a year or two, that just leads you to your entry point. IMO, this recent pullback on wed and thursday is the last you'll see unless Mosaic blows up on Monday after the close. If they dont blow up, better get your chasing shoes on cause we are going to 230-240 by Friday. PS if you check out MOS last conference call they have earnings visibility until 2010. I know MOS isnt POT but they trade together. Good Luck

RBC Defends Potash Corp.'s Valuation: $200 POT?

Terra Nitrogen, they reported the same day as POT and the stock was up big thursday and Friday while both POT and MOS were down. I didnt understand that at all. People are talking about current valuations too lofty and dont get me going about QCOM price target, QCOM's PE ratio was exponentially higher than potash's. People did just fine without CDMA, POT has 75% of the world's Potash supply, what ever that is, I guess we really need it to eat. Slightly more important than CDMA :)

The Brightest Stars in the Commodities Boom, Part Two

K Fine owns Target, and Tesoro. She is a value investor. Not growth or momentum like Pete. Coal stocks found support at the 50 DMA for now if that breaks down you pull out for a small loss. Stuff thats in a trend will stay that way until it doesnt. Take a look at the 5 year $CRX chart we are right at its support. If this breaks I am selling everything related. Ross

The Brightest Stars in the Commodities Boom, Part Two

Wow you really know a lot about this stuff and I have never read anything about this topic before. Thank you for the info. I have to say though, I have owned these stocks early in the year, they came up on my screens, but the charts broke down, and I got out with a small loss, these stocks are in real trouble (matbe not the companies). What will be the catalyst to turn the stocks around? I have found that stuff that isnt working, continues to not work until it does.

Friday's Action Was A Much-Needed Dose of Reality

A financial crash is always a possibility!

Of course, there are always people who are down on the market at any given time. bears base their negative views on problems like the housing slump, high energy prices, a rapidly maninfesting credit crunch, etc. When didnt bears make their case on factors like these, in recent years.


Sure they are right to be bearish because the housing market is weak. But they were bearish when the housing market was strong (too strong, bubble!). They could be bearish because energy prices are high. But they were bearish when energy prices were lower, the market was to fall apart at 50, 60, 70, 78, dollar oil. They could be bearish because credit is tighter. But they was bearish when credit was easier.

So bears make a different argument, every time, its like calling for rain everyday ofcourse one of those days youd be quite the prognosticator.

It’s not that they have been dead wrong on the market the last 20 years, the world’s greatest period of economic prosperity, we've had tech bubble 87, 90, 98, tech bubble. Now there are talking about, The growth in U.S. economic power and personal prosperity is a Fed-induced bubble of gigantic proportions.


Everyone can have their own opinions, but you can't manufacture facts.


U.S. GDP Growth the past two decades is real.

Net wealth in the U.S. – the total value of all assets, including stocks, bonds, bank accounts, houses and retirement funds, after subtracting debt – is approximately $54 trillion today. That's $16 trillion higher than it was four years ago. And it's nearly 10 times what total net worth was in the U.S. in 1980. American wealth is real and rising.

History shows that owning stocks, is the best route to financial independence. Dr. Jeremy Siegel, a professor at the prestigious Wharton School and author of “Stocks for the Long Run,” has tallied the return of T-bills, bonds, stocks and gold over the past couple hundred years. According to Siegel, during the period above, the same dollar invested in T-bills turned into $2,830. A dollar invested in bonds turned into $6,920. And a dollar invested in stocks turned into more than $3 million.

According to Jeremy Siegel, during the period above, the same dollar invested in T-bills turned into $2,830. A dollar invested in bonds turned into $6,920. And a dollar invested in stocks – drum roll, please – turned into more than $3 million.

In short, owning a portfolio of profitable businesses has historically given a higher return than cash, bonds or gold over the long term.

I recently read, more than two-thirds of the companies in the S&P 500 have now reported earnings. And despite a one-week, 4.9% selloff of the S&P 500 in July, “profit growth stands at more than twice the average of analysts' forecasts heading into this earnings season,” this according to Reuters.

I am a Technician (as a trader) and was a physician by profession, so i am merely regurgitating opinions of authors i read, i'd welcome responses so i can broaden my views.
