CAPS Rating:

Exchange traded fund

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 only thing holding this market up is Bernanke's rate cuts and funny business perpetrated by the big financial companies at the behest of GW Bush. The U.S. is $9 trillion in debt and running an ever increasing annual deficit. The country is in a real pickle now thanks to historical Greenspan rate...More

This is a very 'cheesy' (imho) tactic that I got from another Caps player. Over the long haul stocks go up. So shorting all of the ultra-short or short ETFs will do better than the SPY.

If stocks go up then the short/ultra-short ETF will be negative but the SPY will be positive. The man...More

The greatest way to bank points in caps is to short the ultrashorts when the market has bottomed. Since shorting an ultrashort gives a negative 10% and the s&p goes up 5% that means you banked a score of 15% if the market goes to 1330 from this level. The oscillator indicates that we are at -2 meaning we almost hit neutral. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops! There appears to be a problem with your comment.

Few investors will see it coming, fewer still will take protective action, and almost everyone will get caught in the melee." Today, the bells are finally ringing and doing so loudly: The Dow has plunged by more than 20%, confirming the bear market we've been warning you about. Unemployment has skyrocketed, signaling the recession we told you was inevitable. America's largest financial companies — Citigroup and Merrill Lynch — have lost over two-thirds of their market cap. Washington Mutual has lost nine-tenths. Detroit's Big Three are on a collision course with bankruptcy. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!
