The Cooper Companies, Inc. (COO)

CAPS Rating:

Develops, manufactures and markets healthcare products, primarily medical devices through its two business units, CooperVision, Inc. (CVI) and CooperSurgical, Inc. (CSI).

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.

Recs 0 (COO) pnouri (98.72) Submitted: 8/26/08 5:22 PM : Start Price: $35.66 COO Score: -2.17 I have begun to liken to the Eye care space over the past couple of weeks. Valuations have come in as a result of weak 2Q results across the board, excluding ACL.I think these stocks will rebound nicely, even if we do not come out of a recession any time soon.
