Caraustar Industries, Inc. (CSAR)

CAPS Rating:
No stars

The Company and subsidiaries are engaged in manufacturing, converting, and marketing of paperboard and related 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.

Cutting costs by shuttering underused plants and higher operational efficiency should increase stock's price in the long term. Switching from construction supplier to logistical supplier will raise earnings in the short term as well.

Recycled cardboard material manufactured into gysum face papers and idustrial cone and pipe will be in vogue when housing slump recovers. It has 80 years of history behind, and finally lowest price of $5.60. It got to go higher or bankrucpcy in waiting. That is the risk to take for good.

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. 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!
