Vanguard Consumer Discretionary ETF (VCR)

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.

Most of the US consumers that are planning to spend their stimulus checks on retail have already done so. That temporary boost has pushed this up enough to provide a nice safe entry point for a short. "Expert analysts" and "the market" will see life, and likely forecast that the big R has been put off. Then, come Q3, when a huge number of companies fail to meet misguided earnings estimates, things will drop hard and fast.





Note: If you couldn't tell, I loathe how reactionary (and thus retarded) the vast majority of investors and the analysts are.

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!
