Monster Worldwide, Inc. (MNST)

CAPS Rating:

The Company is a global online employment solution, bringing people together to advance its lives, across 36 countries around the world.

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.

Why has Monster outperformed the S&P since 1996? It has a catchy name and I'm almost fearful to give this stock a thumbs down not because it deserves it (be/c it most certainly does0 but because so often stocks go up be/c of hype or a name or some other frilly reason that has nothing to do with the ...More

They have zero debt and and low p/e in relation to the industry average. Their price to book ratio is quite low too. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

Recs 0 (MNST) KipLargo (< 20) Submitted: 9/15/08 11:45 AM : Start Price: $18.50 MNST Score: 1.82 I disagree this is a good stock in a down economy: If the supply of labor is plentiful, i.e market downturn, employers have little need for this service: 1. because they are not hiring 2. because there's little competition for talent when a job does require filling. The unemployed or worried they'll become unemployed will flock to monster, but the site is free, so no money there. The hit level for the site will go up, but why would advertisers want to put ads up on a site being frequented by people out of a job and little disposable income. I don't see how Monster makes money in this scenario. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops! There appears to be a problem with your comment.
