Agricultural Inputs, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 11 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Agricultural Inputs outperforming S&P 500?

Agricultural Inputs has underperformed S&P 500 by 12.4% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 8.3%. 3 of 11 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is broad. CF Industries Holdings, Inc. is the strongest against the sector itself at +15.8%.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

Agricultural Inputs has underperformed S&P 500 by 12.4% over 52 weeks and 8.3% over 13 weeks. 3 of 11 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 7 of 11 beat the sector itself. Nutrien Ltd. leads with revenue of $27,831 million, based on 6 of 11 comparable companies through Mar 2026.

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 81.1% evidence confidence.
ICL Group Ltd looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Price and relative strength

Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

Nutrien Ltd. has the highest Revenue among the 11 Agricultural Inputs companies compared here, at $27,831 million. The Mosaic Company is next at $12,430 million. CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has the highest Revenue growth at 20.9%, so level and change sit with different companies. 6 of 11 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Nutrien Ltd. is the scale leader at $27,831 million, 123.9% ahead of The Mosaic Company. CF Industries Holdings, Inc.'s growth is 20.9% from a $7,407 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

Gap123.9% versus #2 · The Mosaic Company

Coverage6/11 companies · 206 observations

Investor read: Nutrien Ltd. is the scale benchmark; CF Industries Holdings, Inc. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Nutrien Ltd.'s growth falls below CF Industries Holdings, Inc.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

ICL Group Ltd has the lowest PEG among the 11 Agricultural Inputs companies compared here, at 0.11×. CF Industries Holdings, Inc. is next at 0.25×. Glass House Brands Inc. has the lowest P/E at -46.2×, so level and change sit with different companies. 3 of 11 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: ICL Group Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.11×, 56% below CF Industries Holdings, Inc.. Only 3 of 11 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

LeaderICL Group Ltd · 0.11×
Gap56% versus #2 · CF Industries Holdings, Inc.
Persistence0/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage3/11 companies · 9 observations

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Agricultural Inputs comparison names 4 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 11 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.

How was this comparison built?

This comparison is built from the reported filings of 11 Agricultural Inputs companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.

Agricultural Inputs company comparison FAQs

These 22 answers restate the Agricultural Inputs comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 11 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.

Is the Agricultural Inputs sector outperforming S&P 500?

Agricultural Inputs has underperformed S&P 500 by 12.4% over 52 weeks and 8.3% over 13 weeks. 3 of 11 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 7 of 11 beat the sector itself.

Which Agricultural Inputs company is largest by revenue?

Nutrien Ltd. leads with revenue of $27,831 million, based on 6 of 11 comparable companies through Mar 2026.

Which Agricultural Inputs company is growing fastest?

CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has the fastest current revenue growth at 20.9%, across 6 of 11 comparable companies.

Which Agricultural Inputs company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?

CF Industries Holdings, Inc. ranks first at 80.9/100 with 81.1% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.

Which Agricultural Inputs company has the lowest comparable PEG?

ICL Group Ltd has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.11, among 3 of 11 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.

How much history does this Agricultural Inputs comparison include?

The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.

How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?

The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.

Which Agricultural Inputs company is the biggest?

Nutrien Ltd. is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $27,831 million, ahead of The Mosaic Company at $12,430 million. That covers 6 of 11 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.

Which Agricultural Inputs company has the best profit margins?

CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has the highest operating margin at 43.5%, from 11 of 11 comparable companies. CF Industries Holdings, Inc. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +16.1 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.

Which Agricultural Inputs company makes the most profit?

Nutrien Ltd. earns the most, at $2,417 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 6 of 11 comparable companies. Nutrien Ltd. has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.

Which Agricultural Inputs company earns the highest return on capital?

CVR Partners, LP leads on return on capital employed at 9%, across 11 of 11 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.

Which Agricultural Inputs stock is the cheapest?

On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — ICL Group Ltd screens cheapest at 0.11×. Only 3 of 11 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.

Is the Agricultural Inputs sector beating the market?

Agricultural Inputs has underperformed S&P 500 by 12.4% over the last 52 weeks and 8.3% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 3 of 11 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.

Which Agricultural Inputs stock has the strongest price momentum?

CF Industries Holdings, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.

Which Agricultural Inputs company scores highest for research priority?

CF Industries Holdings, Inc. scores 80.9 out of 100 with 81.1% evidence confidence, from 30.9 points on growth and earnings, 16 on capital efficiency, 15.9 on valuation and 18.1 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.

How many Agricultural Inputs companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?

It compares 11 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

What is the total market cap of the Agricultural Inputs sector?

The 11 Agricultural Inputs companies on this page carry $125,624 million of combined market value. Corteva, Inc. is the largest at $52,248 million, about 42% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-04.

What is the Agricultural Inputs sector's P/E ratio?

The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 11 Agricultural Inputs companies on this page is 41.2×, measured on the 10 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-04.

How is the Agricultural Inputs sector performing?

3 of the 11 covered Agricultural Inputs companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 12.4% behind S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-04.

How many Agricultural Inputs stocks are listed in the US?

This comparison covers 11 listed Agricultural Inputs companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Jun 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.

Why are some values on this page blank?

A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.

Is this investment advice?

No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
