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.

Companies are underperforming, especially in the financial sector. I am picking EDS to do well because they will pick up more contracts from business’s needing to drop costs by out sourcing. EDS is one of the companies that can off shore resources to drop cost even further.

Poor management and execution, limited sales growth. Fewer dollars to be spent during the economic downturn by their current clients. HP's hands-off purchase does not look likely to help much in the near term.
