M&A Signaling Market Bottom in Agriculture and Fertilizer Stocks?

M&A Signaling Market Bottom in Agriculture and Fertilizer Stocks?
Big news hits the fertilizer sector as Bloomberg reports that Potash Corp (POT) and Agrium (AGU) are in advance M&A discussions. If Bloomberg is true then this could be a major catalyst for the sector.

Uranium Market Bottoming Five Years After Fukushima as World Heats Up From Carbon Emissions
We should invest in this forgotten sector when it is dirt cheap and in the midst of a bust as the long term forecast for nuclear is very strong.
