Consolidated Graphics, Inc. (CGX)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is a North American provider of general commercial printing services.

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 players 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.

CGX is the largest digital printing company in the US. So what can one expect besides a really nicely printed quarterly report in the mail? For the last two quarters, earnings grew 48-52%, but the trailing PE is just 17. Return on equity is 15%, company trades for less than sales, and margins are improving as the earnings growth came on a relatively modest increase in revenues. 13% held by insiders.

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!
