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.

Dominant carrier in Chile. Growing short haul passenger business and freight business. On fast growth track. PE is low relative to growth rate. Nice dividend.

This is an iffy stock for me. It seems to be a well managed airlines with lots of growth going on. It also paids dividends which is always a plus for me. But the dividends have a foriegn tax place on them that takes back about 30% of the dividend each time. Also the price of fuel will be a factor in this companys ability to keep up pofits. It looks well managed and a major player in it country so I'm holding with caution and checking each company report to see if it can maintain it's growth.

Apparently this pick is one of the few investment grade (Fitch rating of BBB "stable") airlines in the world according to Businesswire article on April 7, 2008. Traffic is growing faster than capacity and the trend is up.

This South American airline is my response to the airline situation in the U. S.

A "GROWING" Airline, unlike most in the USA ! They haul cargo


from South America throughout Latin America and now to our


West Coast. With oil prices poised to drop this year with the


economy in the US " expect" this one to finish the year at


$17. +. " By the way" they pay a ( 9.6% Dividend ) at the


current price.

Travellers up 15% this year and much of it's income is from cargo shipments which allows it to pass on costs for increasing fuel, unlike it's biggest competitors (TAM, GOL)
