Live Nation (LYV)

CAPS Rating:
**

A live music company and a promoter of live concerts in the world.

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.

Signing mega bands is kind of annoying in the way that New York Yankees are, and I have little faith that these slick willies care all that much about shareholders.

Signing mega bands is kind of annoying in the way that New York Yankees are, and I have little faith that these slick willies care all that much about shareholders. That said, the stock is trading way closer to the 52-week low than high, and let's face it - it's a world of supsertars these days, and these guys have them. Madonna, Jay-Z, U2, and the most important band, Motley Crue. It's hard to see how those tours and potential merchandise sold around them don't make serious money. This pick is way more art than science. But I figure they can get to two billion over time. And, since I'm into following media stocks, this one is interesting to me.

With downloads hurting albums sales the music industry needs a new direction and livenation is the right path.





But what do I know I have player rating of 22 and a negative score.

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!
