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.

Dupont for those who aren't familiar. I'm wearing down on this blog post and if you've made it this far congratulations. Dupont has been around for 206 years, is involved in a lot of diverse things, the most exciting of which right now is agriculture. The most important thing I personally use fro...More

DuPont tends to swing back and forth between 45 and 50. I think it's starting to head back up in that direction.

Company should hold up against weakening economy and yield provides some downside protection. Is focusing both globally and on its agricultural division which should provide additional growth. Trading at a discount both to the market and to other agricultural companies.

I work there. We are a great solid dividend producing, reliably steady company but heavily involved in serving the new housing market. Forget housing starts, we track new housing building permit applications. For sizable subdivisions, this precedes starts by a year. Building permits are at the lowest point we have seen in 20 years. The recovery (buying stuff to build houses) is at least 2 years away and probably 3. Damn, why on earth did my management decide to sell Conoco a few years ago?

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
