Our analysts discuss where they see value in their sectors today.

We see significant upside for Compass Minerals.

Here are some of our analysts' best ideas across sectors.

Basic materials stocks have soundly underperformed the global index.

These narrow- and wide-moat names are beating the market this year yet remain undervalued according to our metrics.

The wide-moat company's progress on its Goderich mine operations is encouraging.

With our long-term metals & gold price forecasts well below consensus, most undervalued basic materials stocks offer only modest risk-adjusted upside.

These dividend payers all carry wide moats, yield more than 5%, and trade in 4- and 5-star range.

The wide-moat salt producer has seen operational hiccups and the departure of its CEO, but production is unaffected and we expect a rebound.

These six high-quality stocks are trading at levels that may be too good to pass up.

Though the market is slightly overvalued, our analysts are finding pockets of opportunity.

The basic materials sector is more overvalued than any other sector, trading well above fair value, on average.

Potash producers Nutrien and Mosaic look cheap today, while Compass Minerals and SQM are both trading in 4-star territory.

As we wrap up the second quarter, our equity analysts name their best ideas in every sector.

Few basic materials stocks currently offer risk-adjusted return potential amid our negative outlook for commodity prices.

The quarter featured weather delays and reduced supply.

Adverse news has created an attractive entry point for this high-quality firm.

Higher prices from elevated snowfall should more than offset near-term operational challenges.

Morningstar's Dan Rohr says Compass Minerals, P&G, and Dominion Resources are good picks.
