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.

Recs 0 (UXI) jowenmofield (99.15) Submitted: 11/25/08 5:07 PM : Start Price: $16.01 UXI Score: 9.18 The market probably bottomed on a short-term basis on November 20, 2008. If 800 on the S&P 500 holds, in December we stand a good chance to retest 1,000 on the S&P 500 and 9,600 on the Dow. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

We may get an up day or two but it won't be long before we are back in the soup again. Sell early and sell often. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

Recs 0 (UXI) marc64 (98.88) Submitted: 10/24/08 1:35 PM : Start Price: $21.74 UXI Score: -9.08 This pick reflects the likely consequences of the election and its impact on fiscal spending. Regardless, from a national security standpoint, and whoever wins, industrials are too big to fail. At this point, the consensus seems to agree that policy-wise, Maynard Keynes was right, and everyone knows it. So, fiscal policy will be the taken up in to some degree or another as another way to combat an economic meltdown. The problem with big fiscal spending is that it is notoriously determined by whoever is in power. So the upcoming election will be a major factor in predicting how Gazzillion$ will be spent by governments to prop up spending. Risk? If McCain is elected, this particular pick goes in the tank; it might be better to have picked the likely, fast-turn-around projects-builders, like republican-connected HAL, especially if Republicans hold on to power? Based on the rhetoric, which is always only rhetoric, Republicans are likely to first try to exhaust the tax cuts approach, which will go those who are making a large income, cashing in T-bill coupons, in line for huge inheritances, and/or living off dividends. Then, fiscal spending will probably concentrate on a technically dubious consumer spending approach we already saw with the "stimulus checks" (which actually might work for McCain politically, if he starts talking about cutting huge "rebate" checks). Democrats are likely to spend big on public infrastructure, because it boosts high paying middle class jobs, which have been a major source of political support for them. So with this pick, I am assuming Obama will win, and that Democrats come into a substantial majority in legislatures, where they hold the purse-strings. That assumption seems reasonable as of today's uptick in Democratic polling in formerly deep red states, and makes sense as this momentum is probably founded on people's fears about a complete financial meltdown, layoffs, and Republicans' recent record of miss-management of other emergencies. People could reasonably be asking themselves, Will Republicans manage a sustained economic crisis, as incompetently as they managed Katrina? The evidence regarding the financial meltdown is that Paulson's bailout now seems in retrospect to have been substantially bungled, before more technically competent approaches prevailed, but too late to avoid a serious slide. The emerging economic downturn could be very deep, and very long, and the generic industrials may be too broad to benefit significantly from fiscal policy, so under a Democratic fiscal regime, I expect broad spending on industrials, just what might give this EFT a broad boost.
