AMERICAN ORIENTL BIO (AOB)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a pharmaceutical and Traditional Chinese Medicine company which develops, manufactures and commercializes both plant-based pharmaceutical and plant-based nutraceutical products.

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.
