CAPS Rating:
***

A professionally-managed homebuilder. Its core business is the development of high-quality residential buildings in attractive locations and is also engaged in the development of land subdivisions and provides construction services to third parties.

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.

Brazil is going to be hot for the next decade ... It's China without the Totalitarian aspect .. naturally more friendly to entrepenuership ...





Get your hands on anything Brazil now!!
