Owens Corning (OC)

CAPS Rating:
****

A Company is a producer of residential and commercial building materials and glass fiber reinforcements and other similar materials for composite systems.

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.

Owens Corning is a alternative energy play from two angles: building efficiency to reduce heating needs and composite materials used in wind turbine blades.

Cramer is a little early on this, I'm shorting his pick. It's a sure thing.
