CF Industries is a buyback monster trading at about 7x this year's earnings. x.com 

CF Industries is in prime position as long as the Strait of Hormuz stays disrupted and Henry Hub natural gas prices stay benign. Fertilizer names are worth doing the work on, even after their run-up. x.com 

CF Industries, Nutrien, Mosaic and ICL Group are poor long-term holdings despite surging 10-30% on the Hormuz-driven urea spike. Fertilizer shares Maersk's flaws of cyclicality, weak capital allocation and no economic moat, and amplifies them. Demand follows farmer budgets: when crop prices are high farmers splurge on inputs, and when crops fall they cut back. Urea's 80% jump to $730 a ton reflects a supply shock as Gulf exports are cut off, not a durable advantage. x.com 

CF Industries should surge as the Middle East crisis cuts fertilizer supply just as planting demand peaks. Roughly a third of the world's fertilizer moves through the Strait of Hormuz, winter planting is starting, and farmers cannot delay, so they must pay whatever the price is. Surging gas prices also raise production costs. The stock pulled back as the market priced in the strait reopening, which has not happened, and could reach $150 short term. Oil is the obvious, mostly priced trade. x.com  … Show more

CF Industries looks cheap against its earnings, trading at 10x earnings and 13x next year's while the industry usually gets 13x. Fair value is $142.57–181.45, based on 13x mid-cycle EPS of $12.46, give or take 12%, versus $136.77 now. This is a levels-only view off reported earnings and revenue estimates, with no fundamental work. x.com 

North American nitrogen producers win big from the Hormuz blockade, running on $3 Henry Hub gas while European and Asian rivals pay $50-plus. The blockade removes about 25% of seaborne urea at peak spring planting, and farmer demand is inelastic. CF Industries earns outsized margins as urea nears $800 a ton. CVR Partners pays out nearly all cash flow as UAN prices jump 45%. Nutrien gains pricing power through 2,000-plus retail sites. Low April applications should keep prices high into 2027. … Show more

Agricultural commodity prices should rise because a lack of fertilizer means lower crop yields. Cycles are up, wheat is breaking out on the weekly chart and agris look excellent across the board. Adecoagro could make a multi-quarter, multi-fold move once it breaks out of a 15.5-year base; it closed above its 200-day average after a likely five-year cycle low in December 2025. Above heavy supply near $12 it likely returns to its $16 high, while losing $8.88 could mean a retest of the lows. x.com 

Mosaic is a catch-up play to the rest of fertilizers, since energy, fertilizers, grains and chemicals should all skyrocket while the Strait of Hormuz stays closed. April 2025 was likely a 4-5 year cycle low, and the stock has made a weekly breakout and retest, with multi-x upside possible over the next few years. More basing in mid-2026, possibly undercutting $20, could still come; daily strength and a close above the 50-day average would confirm. x.com 

Farmer Mac's federal charter gives it a moat and low-cost funding as a secondary market for US agriculture and rural infrastructure, fertile ground for long-term compounding. It trades at 11-12x earnings despite double-digit net income growth, yields 3% after 14 straight years of dividend increases, and is expanding into higher-margin rural broadband, renewable energy and power utility financing. Food production and rural energy need capital regardless of the economic cycle. x.com 

Wheat is breaking out on the weekly chart, with cycles up and fundamentals supportive, since exploding fertilizer prices mean lower crop yields and higher agricultural prices. A major cycle low likely formed in October 2025, and a new up wave tracking the 2022 pattern is expected to last into 2027; war also tends to lift inflation and food prices. x.com
