On CAPS, 87.5% of the 128 members who have rated WD-40 believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bulls include All-Stars 00100 and Caligiuri, both of whom are ranked in the top 3% of our community.

This past summer, 00100 highlighted the stock's slick fundamentals: 

Low debt. Good cash flow. Good payout ratio. Very good name brand.

In a pitch from two days ago, Caligiuri also described WD-40 as a well-oiled machine:

With a forward P/E ratio of just 15, the market is not expecting too much from [WD-40]. Despite the economic turmoil, WD-40 sales have increase from last year. Additionally earnings growth from last year is over 63%. If [WD-40] can pull off this type of growth in a recession, I think they can continue to prosper when the economy recovers. To top it all off, [WD-40] treats its shareholders well with a 3.1% dividend yield that comprises only 63 percent of its earnings.
