Advisors' Opinion:- [By Matt Koppenheffer and David Hanson]
In this segment from Thursday's Where the Money Is, Motley Fool financial analysts Matt Koppenheffer and David Hanson discuss Matt's stock pitch of the week, Enstar Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESGR ) . In the insurance world, insurers can start an insurance business, or a line of insurance, that ends up performing poorly. This can force the insurer to then put that line of insurance, or the entire business, into what is known as run-off. This means they are no longer selling policies, and will only continue to manage the existing policies for the life of those policies. That is where Enstar comes in.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By WALLSTCHEATSHEET]
Archer Daniels Midland �manufactures and sells�agricultural commodities. The company�will likely have its bid for the Australian company GrainCorp blocked by Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott. The stock has been surging higher in the last couple of quarters and is currently trading near yearly highs. Over the last four quarters, earnings and revenue have been decreasing, which has produced conflicting feelings among investors. Relative to its peers and sector, Archer Daniels Midland has been a relative performance leader year-to-date. Look for Archer Daniels Midland to OUTPERFORM.

ADM (ADM) rose 0.5 percent to $41.69 in European composite trading. Australia�� rejection of the agricultural commodities producer�� takeover prompted a record 22 percent drop in GrainCorp, the biggest crop handler on Australia�� east coast, and a slide in the local currency.
