CAPS Rating:

A manufacturer of tires and rubber products. The Company also manufactures and markets several lines of power transmission belts, hoses and other rubber products and rubber-related chemicals for various applications.

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.

Have done a great turnaround. Costs are going to be much less than in the past due to settlement with the union on both health care and salaries. Earnings should start to rise this year.

My foolish performance has been mediocre of late. Basic reason is that I shorted a few large caps and was caught on the wrong side of the market these past weeks. (Also had a bummer called DRL which now seems to be coming back strong?) However, in the real world I have been watching GT for a while. ...More

Recs 0 (GT) jimmy6969 (< 20) Submitted: 7/02/08 4:07 PM : Start Price: $17.67 GT Score: -15.77 because goodyear is commited to high end tires for gas guzzler truck and suvs and we all know where these market has gone in the last six months . Folks in general will ride less mean fewer tires wearing out = fewer sells. Oil key ingredent for tires and belts 140.00 per barrel means higher operating cost to run boilers,higher raw material cost,higher shipping cost. Goodyear has made the mistake of sending production to china about 7000 miles away from east coast USA. Shipping cost has tripple in last year and the Dollar has weaken making manufacturing in the US more attractive except goodyear can't stop in midstream and continues to head in the more expensive direction thinking it will save them money.They should have been in China five years ago and bring manufacturing back to this side of the world now to take advantage of the weak dollar and save on shipping. These guys should have some cap.all around to minimize on shiping cost and take advantage on cheap dollar Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!
