Jeffrey Auxier applies his farming wisdom to fund management: Patience and humility pay -- but sometimes a bit of bravado helps.

PM
Philip Morris Int - $49.73
- -0.82%
- $50.01
Auxier targets fundamentally sound companies, with strong balance sheets and predictable cash flows, whose shares have been hurt by seemingly fixable problems. His roughly 120-stock portfolio is headlined today by blue-chips Philip Morris International (PM), Wal-Mart Stores (WMT), Coca-Cola (KO) and payroll processor Paychex (PAYX).

PAYX
Paychex - $31.05

- $30.70
Paychex, which handles payroll and human-resources tasks for small- and mid-sized businesses, also has taken a hit in the last 12 months, falling 21%. Auxier expects the shares to recover with the economy. Paychex' revenue continues to grow, and its human-resources business is taking market share.

AOI
Alliance One Intl - $4.86
- +0.21%
- $4.72
He is also making bets on lesser-known names such as Alliance One International (AOI), a leaf-tobacco producer, with a $350 million market value. He's betting the stock can double from a recent $4 a share. "When you can buy cash flow, you gotta buy it," says the Warren Buffett disciple.

Economic Propaganda.
