Rockwell Automation (ROK)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company is a global provider of industrial automation power, control and information products and services.

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.

High margin business model, a lot of cash, dominant in the US but expanding globally, ripe for a buyout, market cap is currently about 1 times annual revenue

ROK is a Boeing supplier, In Sept 08 Boeing machinists are on strike. So this stock is a downer until the strike is over.

I smell a buyout. Really good profit margins, lots of cash on hand, near 52 week low, relatively small, and a proven brand all adds up to a takeover target to me.

Even if not, the above rationale is enough for me to take a good look. This is a good buy.

Low p/e, especially compared to industry and high FY 08 analyst estimates.





revenue has not been too volatile.

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