Manpower, Inc. (MAN)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company is in the employment services industry. Its five major brands- Manpower, Manpower Professional, Elan, Jefferson Wells and Right Management provide a range of services for the entire employment and business cycle.

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.

Holy smokes, I can't believe how much this stock is getting ripped by wall street. It absolutely makes NO SENSE. The only reason for selling these guys is some idea that the US economy is slowing down and the requirements for staffing aren't going to be there. I say who cares. The US is only 10%...More

I forgot that I wanted to track this one for personal reasons, and I also happened to miss a big jump at the same time. Oh well.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
