The Charles Schwab Corp (SCHW)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company is engaged in securities brokerage, banking, and related financial services. It provides financial services to individuals and institutional clients through two segments: Schwab Investor Services and Schwab Institutional®.

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.

If you think May Day was bad. These guys are in for a jolt as retail brokerage commissions head to zero. Zecco is just the first of these. Now BofA. Not stocks I want to hold.

Close to the bottom, one of the few financials that did not get involved in the subprime mess whole heartedly, should rebound better than the rest.

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. 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!
