Astronics Corp (ATRO)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company designs and manufactures lighting components and subsystems, electrical power generation, in-flight control and power distribution systems for aircraft.

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.

This was at one time a 200 pointer for me I think I ended up with less than 100, now even more off I gotta say it's not a bad move to get back in.

I wish there was a "maybe" button to choose from. On the plus side, they have a fairly wide range of products which in theory should smooth out some of the turbulence associated with airline related stocks. What I'd really like to know, is who fixes this stuff (electronic bling blings) when it breaks... for I would surely invest in them.

AnomaLee picked this to outperform, and I got an update because I favorited him. [Evil laugh] Well, looking at the numbers and the business description, I'm having a hard time imagining what justified the more than 2/3 off slash in less than 6 mos.


Okay, so domestic airlines are sucking wind and not buying electronics for their passengers. Jet Blue tried to be a foreign-style airline by not treating its passengers like chattel, and they failed. No one is ever going to try to please airline passengers ever again, right? The current share price has priced all that in.


Remember foreign airlines? They still provide nice things for their passengers. Remember the Air Force? They still need electronic equipment to drop laser-guided bombs on people and things. Think about it. Electronics for airplanes is not exactly a dying industry.

Going to keep an eye on the election. A big cut in defense spending could hurt this company.

Beat this Stock

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
