CAPS Rating:

A global engineering, construction and services company supporting the energy, petrochemicals, government services and civil infrastructure sectors.

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.

Recs 0 (KBR) doksavage (< 20) Submitted: 11/20/08 6:52 PM : Start Price: $10.26 KBR Score: 3.52 Takeover candidate trading near cash with $18B in backlog in a market where materials and construction and services will explode to get us out of this funk. Also 2 year anniversary of severing with Haliburton makes them takeover candidate in 2009 after April. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

Recs 0 (KBR) DemonDoug (99.79) Submitted: 11/17/08 1:27 PM : Start Price: $12.93 KBR Score: -7.08 Going along with my theory that the best investments are in companies that have zero debt, this one is right up that alley. Zero debt, over a billion in cash, infrastructure/oil play, it's in all the right places for when the economy and the stock market turns around. Small dividend (around 1.5% yield at time of this pitch) to also add to the overall return of this solid company. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!
