Dorman Products, Inc. (DORM)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is a supplier of original equipment dealer, automotive replacement parts, and fasteners and service line products primarily for the automotive aftermarket, a market segment which we helped to establish.

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.

Dorman Products is one of those companies that I love because they make all sorts of little stuff that you never think about but would be screwed without. All the little fasteners and clips and brackets and coolant lines and weird nut and bolt type parts that hold together a car, they make them. These guys have all the stuff I like too; high insider ownership, solid growth and a niche where they’re important and will stay important.

Auto parts makers are where its at now.

I simply used the screener to find all of the 5 star stocks with the greatest 52-week losses. 5 stars should make them good picks and the high 52-week loss should make them cheap. We’ll see how it works!

Excellent management. Auto industry should improve as economy improves. Very few outstanding shares. Continues to have positive earnings even in this enviroment. As materials and energy costs come back into line company will benefit. I don't believe oil and commodities will continue to rise at the accelerated pace they recently have. Feels like complete speculation to me.

With a significant downturn in the economy expected in the next two to three quarters, I would HATE to be in Automotive and their suppliers. New car sales will be at historic lows.





However, parts for the cars that people keep. . . If you don't buy a new car, you'll have to repair the old one. So aftermarket parts supplies should do okay. Don't expect a double bagger here. Just market outperform

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!
