Should you sell Elders?
MAY 31, 2013
A lot of the blame for Elders’ current malaise can be placed on previous management, which set the Elders train wreck in motion by expanding into countless non-core businesses with grand plans that ultimately failed. Many other agriculture-exposed companies have also struggled over the past few years, including fish farmer Clean Seas Tuna (ASX: CSS) and beef producer Australian Agricultural (ASX: AAC) whose share prices are still languishing at multi-year lows. However it hasn’t been all gloom in the agricultural sector with Graincorp (ASX: GNC) recently receiving a premium priced takeover offer.

Fortescue, CSL among those benefitting from a weaker AUD
MAY 13, 2013
It really is a case-by-case analysis. Companies with significant global operations but not exposed to hard commodities are well placed. This includes companies such as CSL (ASX: CSL) and Resmed (ASX: RMD). Likewise, primary producers such as Australian Agricultural (ASX: AAC) benefit from an increase in export price competitiveness. Third, import-competing domestic producers such as BlueScope Steel (ASX: BSL) gain from overseas competitor products becoming relatively more expensive to import.
