Thomas Weisel Partners Group, Inc. (TWPG)

CAPS Rating:
**

The Company's business is organized into four service offerings: investment banking, brokerage, research and asset management.

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.

Believe $10 is the right price to initiate a long position in boutique investment bank, Thomas Weisel Partners. Stock price has been crushed off recent disapointing M&A and IPO results.

Believe $10 is the right price to initiate a long position in boutique investment bank, Thomas Weisel Partners. Stock price has been crushed off recent disapointing M&A and IPO results. They have a large exposure to the technology group, so they face considerable headwinds near term ...but current price seems to have already discounted these near-term challenges. Stock trades at only a 5% premium to companies' net cash position - placing almost no value on their investment banking, IPO and brokerage business - that seems extreme even to this resident financial bear. Along with FBCM (which just laid off 10% of its workforce), TWPG likely represents one of the better risk-adjusted opportunities in the financial sector for those with a 3-5 time horizon.

Personal pick of best value stock in Investment Brokerage industry P/Bk 1.77, Debt to equity .12, 2008 p/e 13.63 steady to growing earnings low debt with high cash reserves places this company in a strong position to acquire a more highly leveraged player should someone fail to perform in this industry, or continue executing in a conservative but increasingly profitable manner.

Beat this Stock

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

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