Kellogg Company (K)

CAPS Rating:

The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the manufacture and marketing of ready-to-eat cereal and convenience foods.

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.

That's my basis for choosing kelloggs. It could be a good hedge for anyone with MOS, CF, MON, POT, etc. in the same portfolio (like me, still), which maybe should be taken out or shorted--if the dollar would stabilize. Anyone think the Paulson/Bernanke plan announced today could finally reverse the trend? Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops! There appears to be a problem with your comment.
