Everyone needs to eat, higher priority than a roof to be sure. That hardly in itself makes agriculture a superior investment option to other sectors.
the property sector has not seen the corruption, manipulation...that has been rampant in the stock market... and, being held by individuals ...it never will hence property, roof over the head, will always be more attractive for conservative, safe investors
You're talking about housing in general, how it's an inherently robust investment vehicle, somehow ignoring the fact that property has crashed in most parts of the world. Tell me what has crashed harder, the median US house price, or the DJIA index? Arguably given housing is more highly leveraged than stocks, it will have caused more pain to investors. Bit ridiculous to suggest investors are only going to be wary of the stock market, but jump right back in to property.
