Archer-Daniels-Midland Should See Higher Near-Term Profits From Middle East Conflict Volatility

Seth Goldstein

Archer-Daniels-Midland buys, processes, and sells agricultural commodities. The firm purchases crops from farmers and then transports, stores, and/or processes the crops before selling them to food, feed, and energy buyers. The commodity products ADM moves around the world are readily available from competitors. The company has little pricing power over the products it buys and sells, making for slim margins. In addition, the capital intensity of its operations makes it difficult, but not impossible, for ADM to generate consistent economic profits.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

With a global network of processing, storage, and transportation assets, ADM has scale advantages over regional competitors. Its trading operations are often able to generate arbitrage opportunities from extensive market knowledge produced by the global origination and logistics network.

Bears

Grain merchandisers, including ADM, will continue to face structural headwinds as farmers and grain buyers have better access to price information. This will limit trading profits over the long term.
