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.

Call me crazy, but this pays 2x the movement of financials because it is an ultralong... the ETF made a triple bottom over the last 6 months at the 27.5 area which is extremely bullish....

The decline up to this point has been writedowns and speculation. Just wait until the banks start playing hot balance sheet potato! There will be a lot of "unloading" of bad debt; no matter how it's classified or financed, the underlying debt will keep deteriorating. We are not at any turning point,...More

This is a great long term play on financials. With no question is there trouble in the financial markets, however, as usual Wall Street has severely overreacted and is beating down this sector. UYG under $20/share will be profitable in the next few years because the banks will come out of this with adjusted business models and this diversifies your holding to the sector. Banks cannot be bad for ever - they will get it turned around.

Do you really want to own a bank that goes to zero stock price?
