FirstFed Financial Corp. (FED)

CAPS Rating:
*

The Company's principal business is attracting checking and savings deposits from the general public and using such deposits, together with borrowings and other funds, to make real estate, business and consumer loans.

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.

Yes, it does seem simple to rate this down on sector alone. To all those out there who think that this sector is going to bounce back, I agree with you, however it is not going to do it any time soon. This sector will be feeling the effects of all its problems for a while. I suppose if you like a high risk with only the possibility of moderate return, then go for it. I can think of a lot less risky places to put my money right now. In other words, this one has not bottomed out quite yet. Time to see if I'm right.

Beat this Stock

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!
