CAPS Rating:
****

A diversified energy holding company engaged primarily in the development, acquisition, exploration & production of oil & gas in the continental United States & in the purchase, distribution & sale of natural gas principally in central and north Alabama.

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.

Down from $80 to $60 in a matter of weeks amidst the correction in energy stocks. EGN has been hovering around 60 earlier this year, so hopefully this level will be a good entry point.

Shorter term reasoning aside, Energen has been around for quite some time: in the last 20 years the stock has returned an amazing 23% CAGR with only one losing year (-22% in 2001) -- a very impressive track record.

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!
