She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy (But, Not My Agriculture Stocks) – Agriculture Capex Rises, More Than Other Material Sectors

Key Points:

  • Crop prices have surged since 2020, spurring farm income higher, despite rising input costs, and positive sector sentiment with it. We discuss weak US agriculture sector equity performance in 2Q22 relative to chemicals and their different views of growth Capex.
  • We highlight pertinent energy, chemical, and other corporate updates (e.g., Chevron, Nutrien, CF Industries, LyondellBasell, Freeport LNG, Univar, BASF, and others).
  • We discuss ESG items ranging from a compelling long-term demand view for clean ammonia to another view of critical material price inflation in the clean energy sector. We also highlight our ESG weekly and other related research coverage in LINK.
  • We discuss numerous other pertinent chemical sector items in this report.
