The J.M. Smucker Company (SJM)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company operates principally in one industry, the manufacturing and marketing of branded food products on a worldwide basis, although the majority of the Company's sales are in the United States.

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.

Smucker's is one of several consumer staples stocks that I have outperform ratings on. When the economy takes a turn for the worse, people will cut back on many discretionary items. However, they still have to eat and Smucker's owns an array of popular brands.

Great family type company run with the machinery of large corporation. Name-brand products, good cash flow, respectable dividend. Smart acquisitions - most notable includes Folgers and Jif (I mean, come on, what goes better with jelly than peanut butter)? This company will soon corner the breakfast market... then they will own the middle section of the grocery store... then they will rule the entire world. I can't wait to see what they do next... but don't expect rapid fire returns. This is one for the long term - not a buy and sell.

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!
