<ul>
    <li>Citigroup downgraded <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/agrium-inc/agu/nys">Agrium Inc</a> (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/agrium-inc/agu/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">AGU</a>), <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/cf-industries-holdings-inc/cf/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">CF Industries Holdings, Inc</a> (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/cf-industries-holdings-inc/cf/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">CF</a>), <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/potash-corporation-of-saskatchewan-inc/pot/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">Potash Corp</a> (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/potash-corporation-of-saskatchewan-inc/pot/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">POT</a>) and <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/terra-industries-inc/tra/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">Terra Industries Inc</a> (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/terra-industries-inc/tra/nys?tabs=quotesandnews">TRA</a>) to Hold from Buy given the year-to-date share appreciation, as their analysis suggests near-term positive earnings revisions are near a peak and should slow going forward.
