CAPS Rating:
****

Innovator, manufacturer and marketer of tool, diagnostic and equipment solutions for professional tool users. Product lines include hand and power tools, diagnostics and shop equipment, tool storage, diagnostics software and other solutions.

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.

Although this company has earned average ROIC in the past, I believe this company can raise this up in the near future. They are the market leader within their segment, at roughly 50% of the pro tool market. This company has been struggling as they have been unable to maintain the number of dealer...More

Despite quarterly dividends of $.30 per share for the last 2 quarters Snap-on is nearing its 52 week high and will plateau there and then fall as purchasers of their products belts keep tightening under the stress of higher fuel costs. Most consumers are mechanics and are not going to buy unless abs...More

Showed up on a screen for solid 5 year growth with low debt, cash on hand and still at attractive P/E ratios.

Although this company has earned average ROIC in the past, I believe this company can raise this up in the near future. They are the market leader within their segment, at roughly 50% of the pro tool market. This company has been struggling as they have been unable to maintain the number of dealer franchisees, which has caused them to lose market share and diminish potential profitability. I believe in the short term the company will be able to add to market share by improving these relationships. In the long term I believe emerging markets will catapult growth. The company has begun to move manufacturing to these areas helping establish a presence. As the average wealth grows within these countries the number of car sales(~70% of revenue is car related) should grow rapidly; due to the company's franchise model I believe the company is best positioned to grow within these areas. This is a great time to buy, as shares have been beat down due to franchisee troubles and general automotive turmoil(Whether or not there will be better times to buy is beyond me, if there are I'd buy more). This should outpace the S&P easily and could create massive wealth over time.

I just did some research on snap on and feel it is a strong play for a well diversified portfolio and you could see up to a 45% return if the stock reaches its fair value estimate. Read more at my blog
