Inflation is high, the Federal Reserve is hiking interest rates, and the U.S. dollar's rise has put foreign exchange pressure on large multinationals based in the U.S. Over the last year, as commodity prices have swung wildly due to supply chain issues and the conflict in Ukraine, many farmers have invested in new machinery to help meet the growing demand for agricultural products. However, for me, Deere is a no-brainer stock that investors can buy and hold -- knowing that it is a well-run and well-positioned company committed to delivering value for shareholders for years into the future.
