		<description><![CDATA[by Steve McDonald, Investment U Research Monday, October 17, 2011 Legendary investor Jim Rogers said recently that he owns all commodities, but that he likes agricultural commodities most of all. Agriculture, according to Rogers, is in the worst shape of all in terms of commodity supply. Why? No one wants to be a farmer and the world population growth is outpacing the growth of food production. According to UN figures, farmland is in short supply and is expected to lag food demand. By 2050, food demand is projected to grow by 70 percent and increased land availability by five percent. The seriousness of the pending food shortage and the potential wealth this situation presents has not yet hit the markets, evidenced by the fact that the S&#38;P Global Agribusiness Index ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continued focus on productivity and cost containment initiatives coupled with better travel trends and lower fleet costs drove Avis Budget Group (CAR) to post better-than-expected financial results for second-quarter 2011. The quarterly earnings of $0.63 per share surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.31 and surged more than 2.5 times from the prior-period earnings. We believe Avis Budget&#8217;s strong focus on cost reductions will help the company achieve its goal of higher operating margins. Moreover, the new sales force in the European region is expected to further augment its fiscal 2011 revenue. Further, with continued improvement in travel volume, the combination of better pricing and effective cost management will likely boost the company&#8217;s performance. Currently, we are maintaining a long-term Outperform recommendation on the stock. AVIS BUDGET GRP (CAR): Free ]]></description>
