H&R Block, Inc. (HRB)

CAPS Rating:
*

A financial services company, which provides tax, investment, mortgage, and accounting and business consulting services and products.

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.

Hyper-Contrarian it looks like. With all these new rules and regulations coming out from the government due to the credit crunch, financial advisory consultants will get more business as businesses and firms evaluate what they can and can not do now.

Getting back to core business. New management. Congress tends to complicate rather than simplify taxes.
