That 10% pop I forecast above for DAL btw... has turned into nearly a 20% pop. Not bad for the most hated sector at any given time in history, including now. And in under two months at that. I only write this because someone here called this thread "boring".
LNN ---> $115.35 Lindsay Corporation (NYSE: LNN), a leading global manufacturer and distributor of irrigation and infrastructure equipment and technology, today announced it has agreed to acquire a 49.9 percent minority interest in Austria-based Pessl Instruments GmbH, with an option to acquire the remainder of the company at a later date. Pessl is a leading global provider of advanced agricultural technology solutions under the METOS® brand and offers IoT hardware and software tools for informed decision-making, including field monitoring systems with a wide array of agronomic data points that inform Lindsay’s award-winning FieldNET® remote irrigation management platform. This investment by Lindsay comes less than a year after the two companies had initially entered into a strategic partnership, announced in May of 2023, to leverage the combined expertise of both companies and expand value enhancement to growers. Pessl boasts more than 80,000 connected in-field data collection devices globally, with 50,000 active customers using its FieldClimate online interface. These connected devices include weather stations, soil moisture probes, insect monitoring traps, crop monitoring cameras, soil and nutrient sampling, machine and asset trackers, and other sensors providing real-time data on key agronomic health indicators. Coupled with Lindsay’s FieldNET Advisor™ platform, which synthesizes millions of data points to make custom recommendations to growers for precise, efficient water application, METOS® and FieldNET® provide a leading-edge solution that opens the door for ground-breaking future innovations in the utilization of artificial intelligence in agriculture, grounded in measurable, precise, and instantaneous data validation. “Lindsay remains committed to providing world-class solutions to growers around the globe while also delivering incredible value for our shareholders,” said Randy Wood, President and CEO of Lindsay. “This investment broadens and strengthens our existing partnership with Pessl, accelerating innovations in water management, increasing our global reach, and providing new solutions needed to conserve natural resources and expand our world’s potential. I’m excited to see how our teams work together to revolutionize the way data is used to inform smart decisions and to maximize our world’s precious resources.” The investment will strengthen both Lindsay’s and Pessl’s leadership positions in key global markets, enabling Pessl to benefit from Lindsay’s leading position in row crop applications and Lindsay to benefit from Pessl’s leading position in specialty crop applications. Last year, the two organizations announced a strategic partnership that has already revealed synergistic potential to unlock incremental value and problem-solving solutions for agricultural producers worldwide. This formal investment will make Lindsay and Pessl, together, the clear global in-field connected irrigation device leader. Gottfried Pessl, CEO & Founder of Pessl, shared “Over the last year, we have had the opportunity to connect with farmers worldwide and demonstrate how they can leverage the combined potential of METOS hardware and software solutions and Lindsay’s suite of agtech products. The feedback has been fantastic, and the results speak for themselves. We are excited about the potential this investment provides, the innovation it will facilitate, and the opportunity to expand and further integrate with Lindsay, a proven leader in agtech.”
As I was typing just now... I heard Cramer just give a shout-out about my beloved AAR Corp. (I have a little TV behind me, what can I say ) It has once again sold off and Cramer said "he doesn't know why." Of course this is the first time he's ever mentioned it. That I've heard at least. It's been a staple of this thread. Next he'll say buy Krogers, and Delta. $AIR--->$60
@vanzandt Nice to have stock pickers, rather than the futures day traders, making posts. I'm curious as to how many of these picks you actually hold in your portfolio? Do you actively trade in and out or are you more of a long term holder. I'm sure you have mentioned this in prior posts but 33K posts are a lot to wase thru.
Some I do, some I don't. Even in the "long term" accounts, I can't resist trading. AIR however, yes, I do own. DAL and KR, unfortunately I closed. Waiting for a pullback. SRAD I own. And Fizz. BJ's... I sold. (and before any of you attempt to get cute with a quick quip on that last sentence... way ahead of ya. They need to change that ticker.) ABT... I own. Traded Accenture. All that said, I only post them here because imo, most are all buy and holds. I just don't practice what I preach all the time, but that doesn't mean I don't like the stocks., and that I haven't done the homework to back up my opinions.
Thanks I'm a TA swing trader, rarely look at fundamentals, find they bias my thinking so that I ignore whats happening on the chart. I do look at your picks with an eye for set-ups I trade. Appreciate your contributions.
100% . And if your timing's right... you beat everyone. I am completely on board from where you speak. No one cares about the granny picks here.... it's all instant gratification. And color me the #1 fool. BUT.... I'm not playing with next months mortgage payment, luckily, .... I'm only playing for love of the game. And what a game it is. And I hate to lose. That's why I keep on working, and keep on posting.
