I've had POT for a long time and recent growth seems completely out of wack. PE, market cap way to big. There is a macro trend toward need for fertilizer, but the run up in price looks like the internet boom to me. And what about their competition...

Yes, everybody wants to sell these stocks down... They feel them rolling over, they feel like that there is way too much fertilizer coming into the market. This, again, is way too American-centric... Here's the deal... I believe that we are still in ...

Solid stock performance so far. As well, the Ag sector is still on fire!! To boot, as long as the mandated "ethanol boondoggle" continues I will be long in this entire sector. Thirty percent of corn is now grown for fuel. Corn-based fuel is a waste o...
