MBIA, Inc. (MBI)

CAPS Rating:
*

The Company provides financial guarantee insurance and other forms of credit protection as well as investment management services to public finance and structured finance issuers and investors and capital market participants on a global basis.

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.

Reckon Moody, Fitch, are destroying MBI and ABK. And they are doing this, only because they failed to do what they were suppose to do in the first place.

Its always easy to step on the person who has fallen. If they would have done their jobs in the first place, we might not be in this mess.

If you think this industry is hurting now, wait until muni bond issuers and buyers realize their "insurance" is worthless and most deals get done without it. It's already starting, but we've only seen the tip of the iceberg.

MBI is one of the surety & title insurance companies with the most illiquid balance sheet. It is also one of the most loss making. It may go bankrupt.
