Nutrien Ltd. (NTR.TO)

Likes it here for the long term. Undervalued relative to historical trading levels. Dominant in key markets. Up today on rumours of selling phosphate division, which is the smallest out of phosphate/nitrogen/potash.

Agriculture sector tends to do well this time of year because cashflows in the sector tend to boost stocks. Has a lot to do with the harvest in the Northern Hemisphere as well. Stock hasn't benefited yet, as tech is sucking a lot of oxygen out of the markets.

Downward trend has been broken, starting to form a base. Positive sign. Just looking for catalyst to move higher. More likely to move higher than lower. Won't run away, but decent technical profile. Good buy at this level of $80.

He'd buy this one today. Agriculture is a long-term theme, and this is one of the best names out there. Will be more volatile than a name like WMT, so perhaps you only want a 3% position total. Buy 1% today, and look for a spot to add.

Always go for quality. You want the best in your portfolio at all times.

Bought a position on the sense of a turning point in the fertilizer price cycle. Bit of a fade in last couple of weeks in some agricultural commodities. Patience will be rewarded. Financially strong. Downstream segment's margins are improving. Yield is close to 4%.

Choppy stock, pretty volatile. But you can see the nice uptrend on the chart, which helps you digest the highs and lows. After a big downtrend, you had basing, and then a nascent uptrend -- stock's looking through bad news, just be patient. Can still buy today and do well.

Lots of geopolitical things happening. When stock shot up from Russian invasion, sold some but still retains a 1/2-2/3 position. Likes it long term. BHP is bringing on Jansen, but it's behind (and second phase may be mothballed). Good diversifier. Nice yield.

For new clients, buying a half position. Ideally, want to buy under $70.

The 3-year chart shows the longer-term downtrend and how it's now beginning to come out. Pulling back recently. Around $75 will be pretty important support. Technicals show it's turned a corner. Doesn't mind nibbling here.

Is fairly valued. Has returned 59% over 5 years. The problem is that if the fertilizer price gets too high, farmers delay buying it. The PE is reasonable, though. It's had a good run the past 12 months.

World's largest crop nutrient business. Upstream production vertically integrated with downstream stores (in US, Canada, and some in South America). Commodity prices for the 3 fertilizer ingredients has bottomed, supported by steadily improving prices for major cash crops (corn, wheat, soybeans). 

Trades roughly at long-term average multiple. Earnings on cusp of a turning point. Dividend's increased 36% since merger in 2018, plus reduced outstanding shares by 23% since then. Yield 3.6%.

Likes it, as well as its US counterpart MOS. Part of his bias toward commodities. Downtrend ended, rounded bottom, now forming a neckline. Trying to break out; hasn't yet, but chart and fundamentals are set up to do so. Could get quite a bit higher, but you have to be patient (it's a commodity, and there's a cycle at work).

Should be affected by tariffs, but it's actually not because of its Canadian and US standalone businesses. Inexpensive. Capital intensive, so the rate of return is not as high as he'd like. Agriculture seems to be working its way out of a funk.

Same play as ADM: has been reversing a long-term downtrend and recently has been moving up. Investors who had ignored this are now coming back.

Bumpy. Q2 is a crucial selling season for them, and supply/demand dynamics in potash will be key. Reintroduced it to portfolios in January this year. Fertilizer cycle has bottomed and is slowly turning up. Vertically integrated with downstream farm supply stores. Operational improvement in South America to improve margins.

Trading at half of peak value of 3 years ago. Lots of upside.

(A Top Pick May 22/25, Up 0.45%)

Commodities in coming years should outperform financial assets. Look at gold and uranium. He likes potash. The chart was terrible for a long time, then based, and is recently breaking out.

Within the chemicals space, the fertilizer stocks are much more interesting and have a better technical setup. Recently bought this name. Commodity-oriented space is continuing to firm up. Very long-term base going back to 2016 is being tested, with higher lows.
