>snip-Try to look at life from the other side of the analyst's desk for a moment and you'll see what I'm getting at. Let's say that in 2000, an analyst had to make a decision between recommending perennial tech favorite Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) and boring agricultural giant Archer Daniels Midland (NYSE: ADM) -- a supposedly stable stock that had been falling since 1998.

At the time, few people suspected that in the next five years, Intel would lose 44%, while ADM would return 220%. And of those analysts who did see the potential in ADM, few were willing to bet their jobs on it.
