Still trying to up my exposure to commodities while they seem to be quiescent. ADM down today: I have stub position which I've doubled up on today while I consider if I want to build a position:

Relatively low p/b, low p/sales, current and forward p/e under 10 which historically (past 10 years) is low for ADM. A Standard & Poor's Dividend Aristocrat, ADM's yield is about 2.3%.

No compelling reason to buy this stock now -- there are so many, almost too many, companies with characteristics as described in the previous two sentences. And it doesn't help that the WSJ published a 4/15 article on Cargill about which they began, "Cargill Inc. posted a 68% decline in its fiscal third-quarter net profit, highlighting the tough environment facing global agribusiness."

Sometimes though it is good to buy when you can hear the quiet.
