Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc. (DKS)

CAPS Rating:

An authentic full-line sporting goods retailer offering a assortment of brand name sporting goods equipment, apparel, and footwear in a specialty store environment.

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.

Recs 0 (DKS) COOLSTOCK (< 20) Submitted: 7/16/08 3:21 PM : Start Price: $16.53 DKS Score: 4.50 I'm very happy to be able to buy DKS at this price! People spend big money on sports. You know how much a pair of Nikes will run you these days? Near the 52 week low, down on a down market, not on bad business prospects. At only about 2 times book value, this looks like a deal on a company that still has a lot of room to grow, with stores in only 36 states. A 12.8 PE on this company makes it a very reasonable buy and I think most people would do well if they bought this company at this level and held on for the long run. Although it may drop lower on fears of less consumer spending, long run it will do very well. Keep in mind that the fear of less consumer spending does not mean there is less consumer spending. I was at a Dicks store today and there were plenty of people shopping there. Whats that quote? Be greedy when others are fearful and vice versa? People are fearful on this stock now, and there is no reason to be...Get greedy now Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops! There appears to be a problem with your comment.

Beat this Stock

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!
