Weekly Stock Pick
Another bloody week in the markets last week. This is a pure panic. Stocks are going down on fear, not fundamentals right now. I see a big rebound coming into the markets anytime. I do see a rebound as a counter uptrend in a primary down trend bear market. I think the bear market will end, when the USA takes care of the real estate mortgage credit crisis problem that caused this whole financial mess to begin with and which exposed the over-leveraged finance environment of the Fed and the banks have been in for decades.
With real estate being an inherent longer term investment, most likely it will take a longer time than we think to eliminate all the bad mortgages and foreclosures. During this time with stock prices very low, long term investments should be considered and acted upon, as well as short to intermediate term trades on selective companies with healthy balance sheets, global operations and revenues, and with PE ratios below the PE ratio of the respective index and industry they are in.
As I scan the charts this week, I’ve zeroed in on one of the biggest agriculture companies in the world. The agriculture stocks had been on a big long uptrend for many years now up until about June of this year until they started correcting to the downside with the rest of the market. The demand for food worldwide is outstripping the supply, and this demand looks to be intact for the next five years at least. I see agri stocks heading backup to their up-trends once this selling panic is over.
