VeriFone Holdings, Inc. (PAY)

CAPS Rating:
**

The Company designs, markets and services transaction automation systems that enable secure electronic payments among consumers, merchants and financial institutions.

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.

The stock travels upward over 30% each day for two days in a row because the company hired a new CFO and claim they cleaned up their books? Methinks the mister market was dropped in his head as a child.

This stock has fallen from it's high because of the financial/accounting trouble. If the financial issues are resolved, then the stock will rebound quickly. It is puzzling why the issue has been taken so long to sort out....more than 6 months now...with little news release on details. I hope something is released soon.

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