Agriculture the Key to Real Stock Portfolio Growth? / Companies / Agricultural Commodities
By: Profit_Confidential
If you’ve ever been into horses, you know that you can spend as much money as you’ve got—and plenty more—on their care. Personally, I like draft horses; Clydesdales, in particular. But the thing about a draft horse is that it can eat a lot of food. And during the drought last year, hay costs soared.
Agriculture, as an investment theme, is consistently on my mind, but it is a stock market sector that is limited. The marketplace is dominated by only a handful of companies. There aren’t a lot of publicly traded agriculture stocks that would be considered mid-cap; the same goes for small-cap companies.

Wall Street Fishing in an Empty Lake for Profitable Investments / Companies / Agricultural Commodities
By: Ned_W_Schmidt

That simple reality is something much of the investment community has never really understood. Even today, twelve years after the internet/technology bubble burst, the Street is still attempting to resurrect that tired old theme. For twelve years, the Street has been fishing in a lake without fish.

By: Money_Morning
Michael A. Robinson writes:
Many Americans view farming as one of the last bastions of low tech.
It's not hard to see why. These days you can use your tablet computer for a video chat session while your car parks itself.

By: Money_and_Markets
Tony Sagami writes: As a teenager, I couldn't wait to get off the family vegetable farm. While the rest of my friends were joyriding around town, swimming, and otherwise having tons of fun, I was always working.
