Analyst Report: The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company
Scotts Miracle-Gro is the largest provider of gardening and lawncare products in the United States. The majority of the company's sales are to large retailers that include Home Depot, Lowe's, and Walmart. Scotts Miracle-Gro can sell its products at a higher price point than its competition because of a well-recognized portfolio of brands that include Miracle-Gro, Roundup, Ortho, Tomcat, and Scotts. Scotts is also the leading supplier of cannabis-growing equipment in North America through its Hawthorne business.

Market Digest: MRVL, ADM, APD, MRK, NTAP
To sum up the current stock market, we offer 'bend but don't break!' And yes, that is typical in a bull market. The S&P 500 (SPX) fell to 5,192 on May 31, about 10 points from its flat 50-day average and almost exactly at its 10-week exponential moving average (EMA). The index then blasted off, closing 86 points off that low. The SPX was back above its 21-day exponential average and the false breakout (generally bearish) on May 1 may be put to rest.

Analyst Report: Vale S.A.
Vale is a large global miner and the world’s largest producer of iron ore and pellets. In recent years the company has sold noncore assets such as its fertilizer, coal, and steel operations to concentrate on iron ore, nickel, and copper. Earnings are dominated by the bulk materials division, primarily iron ore and iron ore pellets. The base metals division is much smaller, consisting of nickel mines and smelters along with copper mines producing copper in concentrate. Vale has agreed to sell a minority 13% stake in energy transition metals, its base metals business, which is expected to become effective in 2024, and which is likely the first step in separating base metals and iron ore.
