What Drives Monsanto Stock in 2017? (MON, BAYRY)

"The company now forecasts 2017 earnings in the range of $4.50 to $4.90 per share, which suggests year-over-year growth of 9.15%. Monsanto shares are currently priced at a forward P/E ratio of 22 based on fiscal 2017 estimates of $4.72 per share. The P/E puts Monsanto's valuation at about four points above the average stock in the S&P 500 index.

All told, Monsanto stock is not cheap, but with Bayer's $128 per share offer price still on the table, the risk-versus-reward favors owning Monsanto. And with President-elect Donald Trump's pro-business policies set to take effect, which increases the chances of the Bayer deal closing, Monsanto could be a way to grow the value in your portfolio."
