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.

According to Jim Cramer:
"You gotta love it when the Commerce Department puts a tariff on Chinese paper, and the former treasury secretary's private-equity firm owns a company that makes the same product Stateside...but that's just what happened. Oddly enough, that ended up helping one little paper company from South Africa.

Coated freesheet is the glossy paper used in magazines and catalogues. And Sappi Sappi Ltd while from South Africa, also happens to be the largest coated-paper maker in the U.S. - and almost all the other paper-making companies in America are private. And since Sappi has been getting killed by cheap Chinese imports, the tariff – if it goes through on June 13 – could give the company a much-needed bump, at least in the short term."
