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 players 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 stock is a regional bank. I believe they have been knocked down by the sector, but have a sound management team. Once the credit crunch shakes out - banks that are sound will again attract investors looking for stable investment and dividends.

The management team in place has never run a succesfull bank, anyone that thinks this bank can get back to the glory days it enjoyed 5-10 years ago doesnt realize that just because they are wearing the pinstripes, doesn;t mean these guys are the 1930's Yankees. All of that executive talent is long gone. I rate them as low for the next 2-4 years because after that they will either clean house and bring in new leadership or be bought.

Speculative, but if they can ride out the current credit crisis, they should be poised to shoot up.
