Potash: A Corny Reason to Buy Now

Potash Corp. (POT) has fallen recently as the price of corn has dropped, but the stock price appears to be over-correcting, writes Ticonderoga Securities analyst Mark Gulley. He upgraded the shares to Buy from Neutral.

“PotashCorp shares have over-corrected relative to the corn price according to our regression work,” Gulley writes. “Shares could rise $7/share just to get back to the current regression line,”

In addition, corn prices should rise in coming weeks.

“We believe the corn price can recover back to $7/bushel in the mid-term (i.e., by 2012 spring planting) where it traded for six weeks until the downdraft during September.”

Potash rose 5% in midday trading.
