Flagstar Bancorp, Inc. (FBC)

CAPS Rating:

The Company is a savings and loan holding company. Its business is primarily conducted through its principal subsidiary, Flagstar Bank, FSB, a federally chartered stock savings bank.

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.

Many loans have gone without being payed off by the people, the banks are making high risk loans, so these types of companies are not doing so hot right now. Happy investing!

Recs 0 (FBC) jmofield (79.10) Submitted: 5/12/08 10:32 PM : Start Price: $6.07 FBC Score: 23.92 I have decided for the next serveral weeks to change my investment strategy to be short stocks trading between $1.50 and below $10 with a market cap of more than $100 million. My goal is to acheive at least a 60% sucess rate of beating the S&P Index. I am looking for 30% of my picks beating the S&P Index by more than 5% with an average per pick of at least 1.50. I am only looking to hold these positions for approximately 10-15 days. All the picks that I select are from screening criteria that I have developed using software from Vectorvest. I find it to be a good screening tool. For game playing purposes, since I always try to have 200 picks going at once, it's a shot gun approach with only short term trading in mind.
