AGCO Corp (AG)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company is a manufacturer and distributor of agricultural equipment and related replacement parts throughout the world.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Way over priced. CNH and Deere will eventually squeeze them out of the market. They do not invest in technology, they only buy other companies that have the technologies and then they let it die.

If you believe the 4.25 estimate for 2009 earnings and the long term growth estimate of 16 this is a good garp style pick. I think both are plausible so I am setting a target price of $68/share.
