Jim Cramer on The Mosaic Company (MOS): 'A Real Tough One to Understand'
We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) stands against other stocks that Jim Cramer discusses. During the episode, Cramer mentioned The Mosaic Company (NYSE:MOS) and said: 'There's no real theme to the other stocks on the list… Then there are two one-offs, Roblox and Mosaic… Here's a real tough one to understand, Mosaic. It's a fertilizer company. Now this one's an oddity. It's entirely possible that people are playing a theme of China food shortages. And that's one, by the way that, I'm not seeing. I think what it really is is farmers are flush, and that means they're capable of buying tons of fertilizer, which doesn't cost that much anyway.' Mosaic (NYSE:MOS) produces and markets phosphate and potash-based crop nutrients, animal feed ingredients, and industrial products. Additionally, it offers blended fertilizers, biological complements, and related services. On May 20, Cramer recommended not buying the stock as he said: 'This weekend, when I was at Total Wine & More up there in Norwalk, I was shocked. Someone came to me and said, what do you think about Mosaic? I said, well, you know what, I think it's just, it's killer. It's killer. But it is hype, it is just like a parabolic move. If I come in now, I think I am too late…. I'm going to have to say, [don't buy, don't buy] because it's just up too much. It's up too much. I'm sorry.' Overall, MOS ranks 13th on our list of stocks that Jim Cramer discusses. While we acknowledge the potential of MOS as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an extremely cheap AI stock that is also a major beneficiary of Trump tariffs and onshoring, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.

Jr ministers carp about their seniors, Sena ministers crib to Shinde about Ajit
MUMBAI: Junior ministers or ministers of state (MOS) in the Mahayuti government have sought the intervention of chief minister Devendra Fadnavis in the matter of delegation of powers by the cabinet ministers of their departments to clear files, hold hearings and other policy-related decisions. The state cabinet has six MOSes—three from the BJP, two from the Shiv Sena and one from the NCP—while the remaining 36 are cabinet ministers. The BJP's MOSes have written to the CM both independently and jointly for his intervention. Their gripe is that despite being sworn in seven months ago, the cabinet ministers have not delegated powers to them, and they have been left with trifling jobs such as receiving memorandums and giving replies to the questions during assembly sessions. 'Junior ministers like Madhuri Misal and Meghana Bordikar have written to the CM,' said a senior BJP leader. 'The departments they represent are mostly headed by Shiv Sena leaders who have not delegated any powers. For instance, as MOS of the urban development department, powers to hold hearings on town planning and policies related to some urban local bodies are expected to be delegated but Sena ministers have not done it so far.' The leader said that the MOSes had written such letters to Fadnavis in the past as well. 'The CM has assured the junior ministers that he will look into the matter at the earliest,' he said. 'The decision is likely to happen before the monsoon session, which begins on June 30.' The BJP leader added that this sort of thing happened in almost all coalition governments, but the tussle had intensified this time. 'The Sena ministers, particularly, have not delegated powers to their MOSes,' he said. 'Ministers of state from the Shiv Sena, on the other hand, have been given powers by the BJP ministers of their departments. For instance, minister of state for home Yogesh Kadam, a Sena leader, has been given specific powers by CM Fadnavis, who heads the department. Similarly, another Sena MOS, Ashish Jaiswal, has been given some powers by deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar in the finance department.' When questioned, Jaiswal said, 'The MOSes who have capabilities get powers.' According to Sena leaders, there is a lot for junior ministers to do in their departments if they have the capability and know how to use their powers. 'Jaiswal and Kadam have been working efficiently and have played a key role in the decisions and policies of their respective departments,' said a Sena leader. Meanwhile, senior ministers in the Mahayuti too have similar issues. A recent review meeting convened by deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde to assess the performance of Shiv Sena-led departments before the local body polls turned into a litany of complaints against NCP leader and finance minister Ajit Pawar. The Sena ministers complained that the discretionary powers held by Ajit were being used to deprive their departments of budgetary funds. Shinde, however, assured his ministers that he would raise the issue with Ajit and chief minister Devendra Fadnavis.

Air Force holds epic exercise to blow stuff up, calls it ‘EPIC CRAB'
'Airmen walk away from an explosive detonation during EPIC CRAB 25 Exercise at Northwest Field, Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, May 1, 2025. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Adasha Williams. In the pantheon of great names for military exercises, few can rival 'EPIC CRAB,' which pays tribute to the unique culture of the military's explosive ordnance disposal, or EOD, community. Led by U.S. Pacific Air Forces, this year's exercise involved EOD technicians from the Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, and the Republic of Singapore Air Force, said Air Force 1st Lt. Ariana Wilkinson, a spokeswoman for the 36th Wing on Guam. As for why EPIC CRAB is named 'EPIC CRAB,' well, the Air Force had a pretty detailed explanation. 'The name 'CRAB' is derived from the informal term for the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) badge, which is commonly referred to as a 'crab' due to its distinctive shape,' Wilkinson told Task & Purpose in an email. 'This term is widely recognized within the EOD community. The EOD badge is unique in that it is the only badge awarded to service members from multiple Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) and Air Force Specialty Codes (AFSC) across the Department of Defense (DOD), as all EOD technicians attend the same joint training school.' As for the 'EPIC' portion? That's a 'play on 'Expeditionary' in the Pacific region, reflecting the exercise's focus and location,' Wilkinson wrote. And the exercise certainly was epic. A photo taken by the 36th Wing shows four airmen looking totally badass as they nonchalantly walk away from an explosion at Anderson Air Force Base on Guam. The picture could easily be mistaken for an album cover — cue 'My Hero' by the Foo Fighters. It turns out that 'EPIC CRAB' is a variation of a theme. Last year, Navy EOD techs took part in the first King Crab Competition. The Navy's Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group 2 also conducted Snow Crab Exercise 2025 this winter at Camp Ripley in Little Falls, Minnesota. EPIC CRAB 25 was held from April 27 to May 3 on Guam, and it was coordinated by the 554th Rapid Engineer Deployable Heavy Operational Repair Squadron Engineers 'Red Horse' Squadron, Wilkinson said. The exercise took place on several locations across Guam to emphasize distributed operations and decentralized command and control, Wilkinson said. The EOD technicians divided into small teams and then used live explosives to neutralize unexploded ordnance and improvised explosive devices, Wilkinson said. The scenarios took place both in the day and at night, so EOD techs used night vision goggles for nighttime exercises, she said. Air Force EOD technicians must go through extensive training to learn how to deal with bombs, chemical weapons, and even nuclear threats, said Air Force spokesperson Laurel Falls That training begins with the 26-day EOD Preliminary Course at Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, which has a 53% attrition rate, Falls told Task & Purpose. The course is meant to test airmen's physical and mental limits to prepare them to deal with explosives. Airmen who make it through the preliminary course go on to the Naval School, Explosive Ordnance Disposal at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, Falls said. The school trains service members from all military benches, and the program lasts 143 days. Following the school, airmen go to their first duty station where they go through 18 more months of advanced training on the 10 core missions that Air Force EOD technicians support, including countering improvised explosive devices, responding to weapons of mass destruction, handling nuclear weapons incidents, recovering unexploded ordnance, clearing operational ranges, and engaging in irregular warfare, Falls said.

He attended Chesapeake public schools and graduated from Indian River High School where he met his wife, Nicole. After earning the title United States Marine, Wallace went on to his Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) schooling in the engineering field as bulk fueler and later into Hazmat operations while stationed in Camp Lejeune, NC. He completed many humanitarian missions to Puerto Rico and to Texas to assist in securing the border just to name a few. Wallace was promoted through the ranks and became a Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO). He completed his four years of active-duty service in 1999- and two more-years reserve duty. He was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps in 2002. In January 2000, Wallace embarked on another service and this one was to the city he was raised in, Chesapeake. He joined the ranks of the Chesapeake Police Department. In July of 2000, he graduated as a fully sworn and certified Law Enforcement Officer for the Commonwealth of Virginia with the Chesapeake Police Department 41st session and was elected the class president by his peers. Wallace is a 25 Year Law Enforcement Executive. A proven leader in the Chesapeake Police Department with over 300 staff under his command. He has worked in every borough of Chesapeake, and its waterways. He is currently assigned to Special Operations for the department and additionally serves as Executive Officer for the Marine Patrol and Underwater Search and Recovery Team. As a Former FBI and DEA Task Force Officer, he protected our liberties abroad and took on violent gang members to get them off our streets. As a former School Resource Officer at Great Bridge High School, Wallace Chadwick knows firsthand how to keep our kids safe. Wallace holds a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration. As the CEO of National Non-Profit, Wallace supports law enforcement and raising over $10.5 million for fallen officer families. In his free time, which isn't often these days, Wallace and his family enjoy traveling and I am a grassroots conservative candidate with experience, leadership, and integrity to serve the city's needs. I believe in hard work and serving others. Chesapeake isn't just where I live. It is a part of who I am, where I grew up, chose to raise my family, and serve my community. I am a fierce defender of the constitution and 2A rights. I want to end the perception of nepotism that has existed for so long in that office. I want to expand technology, use new tools and tactics to improve the environment in the office. I want to make it a top priority to take care of the men and women that serve in the office. This means allowing them to be free to speak their minds without fear of retribution. I want to expand training and programs where every deputy and employee can progress themselves not just a select few. And finally, I want to expand programs for the inmates allowing them to have a skill when they finish paying their debt to society. For too long, the Chesapeake Sheriff's Office has operated under a system of nepotism and succession, leaving voters without a true choice in leadership. But this year is different. I am stepping forward to give Chesapeake voters a real option—one that puts integrity, accountability, and experience first. As your CONSERVATIVE candidate for Sheriff, I'll fight to: • End catch-and-release permanently, not just during an election• Bring full transparency to the Sheriff's Office• Keep our neighborhoods safe As your CONSERVATIVE candidate for Sheriff, I will fight for full TRANSPARENCY and honest leadership. If elected, I'll shine a light on every corner of the Sheriff's Office — no secrets, no excuses. My goal is simple: a strong, accountable office you can be proud of. I am running to be the Sheriff of Chesapeake. A city I grew up in, attended school in, started a family in, chose a career in and started a multimillion-dollar Non-profit business in. I am a Marine Corps Veteran and have spent the last 25 years in the police department serving the citizens of this great city. I have a bachelor's degree in criminal justice administration; I literally went to school and majored in a program designed to run a law enforcement agency. But beyond my education, my real qualifications come from hands-on real law enforcement experience. In the field and in the administrative positions that I have and currently hold that make me the best person to be your next Sheriff. It is my time overseeing and commanding hostage situations, active shooter scenes, officer involved shootings, lengthy organized crime investigations, and the many federal investigations I completed with the DEA and the FBI as a task force officer. In my current position as a police Lieutenant, I supervise over 300 other sworn and non-sworn personnel. I routinely prepare and project budgeting needs for my areas of operation including grant writing, capital improvement projects, maintenance of vital city equipment and training for officers. As Sheriff, I will fully cooperate with ICE and all federal immigration enforcement—no exceptions. Enforcing the law isn't optional. When local leaders refuse to work with federal agencies, they put our communities at risk by releasing violent offenders back onto our streets. I've been clear and consistent on this from day one. My opponent refused to cooperate with ICE until public pressure forced a reversal. Voters deserve a Sheriff who doesn't wait for political winds to shift. I'll always back the rule of law and put the safety of Chesapeake families first. Chesapeake's Sheriff's Office is close to full staffing, thanks to competitive pay and strong benefits from the City Council. To ensure fiscal responsibility, I support a full audit of programs and spending to confirm funds are used wisely. To retain and attract top talent, we must double down on what works: good pay, top-tier training, and a culture where deputies feel valued. That means promoting from within, expanding wellness programs, prioritizing deputies' pay by renegotiating unfair part-time scheduling fees, and creating leadership opportunities. This job is tough, and our deputies deserve a Sheriff who has their back—every shift, every day. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
