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.

Avatar mrindependent (99.29) Submitted: 11/16/09 2:06 PM : Underperform Start Price: $29.76 BRCM Score: -3.13

Broadcom is apparently wll loved because it is a technical innovator and deals in semiconductor for wired and wireless communications. The company is a leader in its rapidly growing field, but it has been unable to turn this leadership into reliably high profits. This year the company is projected to earn only $0.18 per share and in 2010 earnings will hopefully balloon to $0.78 per share. To be rair, I ought to mention that the company sports $4.00 per share in net cash, which means it is financially solvent. Subracting cash per share from the current share price leaves an adjusted share price of $25.51, which compares to an earnings estimate of $0.18 per share in 2009 and $0.78 per share in 2010. The price for this company is simply too rich.
