Mosaic (MOS), Monsanto (MON) Earnings

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 15:36:17 GMT

Agriculture is one of my favorite "long term" themes as a crowded planet modernizes - but the recession has certainly hit the names in the sector more than I thought; I thought these would be a bit more recession proof. In the first few days of the week, 2 under achievers of late - Mosaic (MOS) in fertilizer and Monsanto (MON) in seeds/herbicide have reported and despite disappointing numbers have not been hammered. In fact Mosaic rallied after its report Monday evening but then again as we noted - by midday yesterday almost every stock was up. At some point all the bad news will be in these stocks, but it is unclear if that point is now.[More...]

Nuke Workers Would Qualify for Benefits, Compensation Under Legislation

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:50:00 GMT

Oct. 20--Ailing Cold War-era atomic workers at plants at Fernald and Piqua and some survivors would have an easier time obtaining federal compensation and medical benefits under legislation announced today, Oct. 20, by U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown.
Under the legislation, former workers at the Feed Materials Production Center at Fernald and the Piqua Organic Moderated Reactor suffering from certain cancers and other ailments would benefit from the presumption that their illnesses were caused by occupational exposures, enabling them to qualify for help under the Labor Department's Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program.
"Former energy workers battling cancer should not have to struggle to receive the benefits to which they are entitled," Brown said.
