CAPS Rating:
****

A nanomaterials developer and commercial manufacturer and produces engineered nanomaterial products for diverse markets - sunscreens, personal care, architectural coatings, industrial coating ingredients &, plastic additives.

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.

Weak management. Small market. Limited penetration. Very small sales footprint.

Well I may regret this one as it is a bit risky. They specialize in nano-materials, specifically they do a good business in nano-additives to paint. They had bad earnings due to housing market, but I think in the long run this is a good buying opportunity. I like the long term support here and I bought some today for my personal account at around $5.40. I would probably sell if it fills the gap up to $6.50 in the next 6 months (about %20 gain).

In a sector that should pay off. Nanotech is poised to do great things. Not sure that this is the horse but helps to spread my bets.
