Systemax, Inc. (SYX)

CAPS Rating:
*

A direct marketer of brand name and private label products. The Company operates in three primary reportable business segments - Technology Products, Industrial Products and Hosted Software.

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.

You can't tell me this stock goes up 300% while Dell which is the most efficient and better producer in the market can't fight a slide. SYX can't keep this up, It's going down.

The company has no debt. They have declared a special one dollar per share dividend for two years in a row to try and stymie the hedge fund, boiler room and naked short attack that is taking place, possibly with the collusion of the financial press (funny correlation between short interest and the timing of news. All their operations are profitable and growing and they have strung together back to back Quarterly sales growth for more than a year, which the press seems to pay no attention to. Their last Q set a company record for sales, profits and earnings growth with no extraordinary items. PPS has been beaten down on year old news of an investigation of their rebate policy -- basically bogus and representing just a miniscule percentage of sales. They are benefiting from on line sales growth (Tiger Direct is one of the largest on line retailers of computers, etc. in an industry expected to grow 20% in 2008.). 40+ % of a very low float is short and will have to cover at some point.

Strong growth internet and catalog tech sales company emerging from a black cloud of rebate investigation. Extremely low P/E and good EPS growth. Better margins then competitors and expanging into brock and mortar with compusa purchase.

This stock was beaten down when they postponed 2007 earnings release. When it was released it blew away all expectations. CompUSA outlets give them added retail locations to drive revenue.
