CAPS Rating:

The Company designs, manufactures and supports complex power conversion and control systems and gas flow control devices used in plasma-based, thin-film processing equipment.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Recs 0 (AEIS) JP1031 (66.09) Submitted: 10/10/08 12:55 AM : Start Price: $9.70 AEIS Score: 19.06 Compared to its competition, AEIS doesn't appear very strong with poor sales growth, moderate P/E, low profit and low EBITD. While it's in a growth industry, it seems to be poorly managed. Unless management changes, I predict it will underperform the S&P 500. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

Any electric company's stock is definitely going to grow in these summer months, so it's wise to get in on this stock now and get out of this stock by september.
