CAPS Rating:
*

A federally chartered mid-tier mutual holding company offering variety of financial services.

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.

While many investors believe Kansas-based Capitol Federal Financial has escaped the financial market meltdown, I disagree. It dropped below $30 in mid January and since has risen above $40 before retracing a few dollars. Expect some more pain. P/E remains at 80, which is excessive for a financial ho...More

Im confused why the numbers are so terrible and the stock keeps going up.

Bad-
5 year avg rev growth -1.5%
5 year avg dividend growth -2.4%
1 year earnings -35%.

Real Bad-
PE a ridiculous 65 (10 times industry avg)
avg analyst target is 50% lower than current price.

Are You Fricken Kidding Me Bad-
Enterprise Value/Revenue = 41
Book value puts of 11, trading at 43.
(wouldnt be that bad except most financials are trading at a fraction of their book value not MULTIPLES of it)

Can someone please explain why this stock is able to defy gravity/reality
