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.

As former Barista and current Shareholder, I am grateful for the return of Schultz. He saw his company slipping, and made the right move in coming to its rescue. So far, it seems he is making all the right moves in correcting issues--closing underperforming stores, slowing domestic growth to stop th...More

There is a new sheriff in coffee town, Ronald McDonald. The angry red headed, red nosed, and red shoed clown will beat the Starbucks Mermaid like a red headed step-child ...nothing but pain and suffering for the Mermaid, the SBUX baristas and SBUX shareholders.

I believe that Starbucks wil hold relatively steady where it is at for the next two to four years. I do believe that it has hit its bottom, but I don't think it will see much gain. Overseas expansion won't help a lot because of the cultural differences. Those countries that are "coffee drinking countries" have their own favorites and Starbucks can't make much inroads into those that are not coffee drinking countries unless they can actually make a cultural shift. Basically I'm saying that in the next 2-4 years the bulk of their overseas customers will be American tourists that want a known quality of coffee, and with the loss in the dollar against foreign currency that market is not growing at the moment.

When you need to wake up, need a quick bite to eat or just sit and work on your laptop. Starbucks will be there. Their stock price just needs to upgrade from a tall to a "Ventii"

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
