Banco Latinoamericano de Exportaciones (BLX)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Bank is principally engaged in providing trade financing to selected commercial banks and corporations in the Region.

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.

Cheap. 12 PE, big fat dividend, access to growing markets, growing earnings, and excellent 1.6% return on assets, where the norm for a good bank is 1%. Sooner or later the stock price catches up to the numbers.

Strong profit margin (66.44%) Earnings report for the year is expected to be raised. A lot of debt 2.89 Billion, but I guess it is a bank. I am going to do more research. I would really like to understand bank operations better. But from what I have seen so far, most banks have tons of debt. I guess thats because they borrow the money they are lending from the treasury or someone? Can any one recommend some reading that explains this?

Seems to be undervalued though when looking at profits. If you have time to wait for the market price to catch up, should be a nice 35% gain over the next 2-3 years.

Conservative Latin American Bank. No subprime exposure. Fast growing region. Should rise as financial stocks come out of the credit crisis.

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!
