Builders FirstSource, Inc. (BLDR)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company is a supplier and a fast-growing manufacturer of structural and related building products for residential new construction.

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.

Cramer predicts that the real estate market will bottom out in Q3 2009, while real estate related stocks have bottomed out this past july.

Lets see if this happens...

Will drop back down, after this little spike. Make some easy points. Market is still down in this sector. Ride it down for points.

Yep, they have made some crappy financial decisions to serve their greed for the short term... At their current price and limited shares, I am willing to risk it. I believe they are set to capitalize on a market turn around...however, I don't believe the turn around will be until next year or later. So, I would look to buy in the 3-5 dollar range.

A P/E of 700? Does not seem appealing to me from the retail sector.

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!
