KBR, Inc. (KBR)

CAPS Rating:
*****

A global engineering, construction and services company supporting the energy, petrochemicals, government services and civil infrastructure sectors.

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.

I recently got back from Iraq. These guys (a spinoff or something from halliburton) did soldiers laundry, worked in the dining facilities, daycare in Kuwait, drove trucks, built things, and moved everything that needed moved (when they didnt make us soldiers do it :o)
They are making huge profits, as long as the war goes on they will only keep growing!
