Q: Stockpickrs, I was lucky and bought TRA last spring at 14.75 and rode it up to
$40.00 I am not sure if I like CF/TRA combo. I am looking at putting the money
to either buy POT or AGU on a pullback. Which one do you think has best
prospects or is there another name I should be looking at?

Thanks

A: If you are looking for fertilizer plays one thing to consider is the type of fertilizer
you are interested in. There are a variety of types that farmers use to increase yields
with the important elements being nitrogen (ammonia compounds), phosphorous (phosphate
compounds, and potassium (potash). Other specialty fertilizers also exist like sulfate of
potash and others. Some fertilizer companies are in the non-metallic mining industry
while others are considered to be in the chemical manufacturing industry depending upon
the type of fertilizer. Some fertilizer companies include the well known to the
relatively unheard of. A brief list would be: POT, AGU, MOS, TRA, CF, TNH, CMP, SQM,
COIN, etc. The list does go on but the point is that there are a lot of options beyond
what is popularly publicized. It would be interesting to hear other Stockpickr's input
regarding which they prefer and why. more

A: Good idea. It definitely makes sense. Similar scenarios would likely apply to other
heavily cotton weighted textile companies don't you think? Are there any long ideas out
there? There is BAL (iPath DJ AIG Cotton TR Sub-Index ETN) which could be a pure play on
cotton futures. However, daily volume is poor. more

A: if ETF's are doing what they say they represent and not just using a computer program to
show if they owned the actual stocks (long or short) then it makes perfect sense that if
they took profits, then they should give profits to reflect NAV....other wise how would
the fund reflect actual holdings if he's pocketing cash and has less shares than what the
fund says it holds? eventually you would end up with a madoff senario where the manager
has the actual money and your share NAV is actually an imaginary number which only moves
from traders exchanging shares tracking a computer model....which in lamens terms you
would really own shares of nothing. more

A: This one could go anywhere. Under 3 is a low risk price to pick some up if it gets there
again. If you buy it in the high 3's to $4 I would pay close attention to it. more
