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 players 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.

CA has been sitting at the bottom of the pack of information technology companies for a number of years, but things are looking up. The executive leadership team is finally starting to get a hold of the situation and are setting a new standard for the corpoarte culture, one which rids the company of the ghosts in its past.





The stock has been stagnant for a number of years now, and in a recession spending on enterprise technology will only increase as employers search for ways to cut costs ranging from energy to sales to human resources.
