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.

Clorox is launching a new product line (they're going green), and they are purchasing an upscale line of products. Best of all and my favorite--dividends--this is a company that has paid a consistent dividend for many years.

We sold all of this stock. You would be wise to do the same. Dump this dog. Find a good management to invest in. If you took Cramers advice on this one, he will tell you he is sorry. Ha.

Trading closer to the bottom of its 52 week range. Very similar to my KMB pick. They make inflexible goods. This stock may fall, but it won't fall further than the market. Entry point looks okay.

they've had some very marketable products and I like what I've seen--even the ads I've noticed.

Bottom fishing in a company that has a great brand name and is taking up a new (worthy?) initiative by producing "green" products. I'm not sure if the products really are eco-friendly, but at least they're trying. The past quarter's international growth was strong, but management complained about input costs - surprise, surprise. Although competition is fierce especially during weak economic times as consumers may flock to generic, off-brand names, CLX does have a reputation for quality.
