Overstock.com, Inc. (OSTK)

CAPS Rating:
*

The Company is an online closeout retailer offering discount brand name merchandise, including bed-and-bath goods, home decor, kitchenware, watches, jewelry, electronics and computers, sporting goods, apparel and designer accessories.

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.

As of close of business on 2/20/08, this was a 5-star Morningstar stock trading at less than half of its Morningstar fair value.

You know when Overstock.com advertises that
"it's all about the 'O' "
I don't think most viewers realize that Overstock means the number, not the letter. As in zero profits. Imagine that, truth in advertising.

But there's so much more to dislike about the '0'

Solid companies are getting killed lately, and this money loser holds its ground. Go figure. Never earned a profit ever. I think the recession plus higher shipping costs due to higher fuel cost will put a nail in the coffin of this one, it's debt another nail.

Sooner or later this company will have to run out of money.

I don't know what the record is for consecutive years of losing money for a publicly traded company, but this one has to be getting close to it.

Click on the "earnings" tab. They are losing money at a fantastic rate, but their stock is up 100% from April? (sirens)

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!
