Short-sellers and hedge funds may be shadowy, but
sometimes they are the smartest guys in the room. They've
done their homework, and they're willing to bet their capital
against the crowd -- an investing strategy that can be as
lucrative as it is contrarian.
On
Motley Fool CAPS, we've also got leading analysts who
find the chinks in a company's armor and correctly call its
fall. Our "Underdogs" have earned 100 or more CAPS points by
correctly predicting that one or more stocks would
underperform the market.
Let's look at some of the recent calls these All-Star
investors have made. Instead of studying more of their
pessimistic picks, we'll focus on the stocks these top
members expect will
outperformthe market. If these CAPS investors have
scored big by correctly predicting which stocks will fail, it
may be worth our while to see which others they think will
succeed.
