A holding company for GSWC, public utility company engaged principally in the purchase, production, distribution and sale of water in California and also distributes electricity in several California mountain communities.

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.

Price has downturned recently. Drought creates water crisis. The resource and delivery price increases have to some extent already been considered. Seasonal rains & snow COULD alleviate the problems.
