Corteva Inc, the NYSE-listed bio-tech firm has been on an upward trajectory with its stocks hitting a 52-week high. Backed by robust growth, the company’s stock holdings are being increased by several investors including Vermont Trust Co. and Swedbank AB. On the leadership front, the company has seen key changes with Tim Glenn's retirement and the appointment of Judd O’Connor as EVP of the Seed Business Unit. Corteva has also been making headway in the gene editing space, teaming up with Pairwise to advance climate resilience in agriculture. However, it’s not all green, as issues in Argentina are expected to impact the 2024 outlook while the latest 7.3% drop is likely to provoke severe steps from institutional investors. The company has managed to consistently outperform the market despite minor hiccups and is raising its dividend to $0.17. Corteva, whose Q2 earnings and revenues have beaten estimates, is growing its portfolio by buying resistant starch durum wheat traits from Arcadia Biosciences. As the company gears up to participate in BMO Ag-Apalooza and host Investor Day, the focus remains on its future plans regarding market challenges, dividend analysis, and leadership transition.
