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.

Latest (4-10) Earnings Report unconvincing in terms of a true turn-around...It's just marginally better than the past 3 years of increasingly horrid results due to write-downs, closings etc.

Jumped out prematurely to up my "accuracy" score...what a good strategy! Hopefully can milk out a few more points.

Furthering this thumbs down. After failed merger; with Cost Plus, another one-star company--these two drunks won't even be able to to hold themselves up, let alone have fun falling down, and try getting back up. I stole that line, it was said about the Blockbuster and Circuit City merger, but I think that one was a fundamentally good thing.

CEO and executive staff not making sound finacial decisions. Example: Cuts staff by 250 over 2 years and promotes all direcotrs of merchandise to VP levels. Point, not like the merchandising team has chosen winners over the past 5 years, So, lets give them more money, elevate an already inflated ego system, aligning with new CEO and ALL senior executives and put more work on lower level work force. If morale wasn't already bad! All of the so called layoffs are now negated. If this Company has a bad holiday, not only will they lose the 104 million from sale of building, they will be headed for BK!

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!
