TransDigm Group, Inc. (TDG)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company primarily designs, produces and supplies highly-engineered proprietary aerospace components to solve specific needs for aircraft operators and manufacturers.

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.

This is another strong company that has been taken down by high oil prices. They have continued to grow and beat earnings estimates and are currently way undervalued. Buy on the dips and hold for the longer term. This company makes highly engineered parts for aircraft worldwide.

i'm assuming low tech parts are less expensive than high tech parts.

I hate to pick against Bill, but I think that Transdigm has too much debt to succeed.

Stellar fundamentals. Strong Earnings, ROE, debt and interest coverage, cash flows.

Proprietary product creates a moderate moat.

Even with a big fat margin of safety built in, I think this one is undervalued.

Time to buy TDG, trading near it's 52 week low. I'm always bottom fishing and this looks to me like a big catch.

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!
