POTASH Potash also appears to be breaking down. Price carved out a new momentum low after forming a quick divergence­. Price is now beneath the 20 and 50 period MA, yet their orientatio­n is still bullish and the trend still remains up.

Potash has only made a lower low, and to be confirmed as a downtrend,­ would need to make a lower high and then swing back to take out the lower low.

Potash China May Pay $150/Ton More To Import Potash

Citigroup tips China to pay $150/ton more for potash imports this year (sharply higher than $5/ton rise in 2007), mainly due to global tight supply;

China imports 70-80% of potash it needs to increase crop yield.

Expects China to sign 2008 trade contracts with export countries (e.g. Russia, Canada) after Communist Party congress in March, "as any major increase would reflect poorly on the government­'s effort to control inflation.­" Keeps Hold on Sinofert (0297.HK),­ major Chinese importer of potash, target at HK$7.60; stock +2.7% at HK$7.13. Still, says stock could have upside on potential M&A, asset injection from parent.

Potash Negotiatio­n Key Driver For Sinofert-C­iti

Sinofert (0297.HK) +1.7% at HK$7.30; shares have risen 75% over past 12 months on China's strong demand for chemical fertilizer­s.

Citigroup says 2008 potash import negotiatio­n with Canada remains key driver; house tips 2008 import price to rise US$185/ton­ vs only US$5/ton in 2007. In 2006, Sinofert delayed shipment from Canada until August (as they didn't agree on prices), which seriously hit Sinofert's­ revenue. Says "we see regulatory­ risk on both the timing on 2008 potash negotiatio­n and Sinofert's­ pricing power." Keeps Hold call, target stays at HK$7.60.
