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.

I have been watching this stock for the last few years and bought a couple of big blocks at 25 a few weeks ago.

This stock is a great buy right now. The blog that was written last week was from an uneducated, misadvised hedge fund who was writing it in their best interest to lower stock prices.

The credit crises and morgage meltdown in the U.S. isn't going anywhere this summer and is likely to only get worse. If Bear Sterns couldn't survive what hope is their for the rest of the financial sector. Yes, the financial sector seems to be jumping back and key reversals seem to be lifting bullish investors, but this ray of hope will end once investors understand how bad this looming recession is going to be. Even the hopeful and growing few in the financial sector are going to suffer from the troubles of the many.

Overvalued, significant ALT-A exposure, no catalysts for growth.

RWT has worked during the REIT crisis to position themselves to be one of the industry leaders the next time the real estate cycle goes through an "up" phase.
