Every week, I take a look at a few companies that have lapped their profit targets. Leaving Wall Street's pros with quizzical looks can be a good thing. It usually means that the companies have more in the tank than analysts figured, and capital appreciation often follows.

We can start with Bob Evans
MercadoLibre
MercadoLibre's strengths in Argentina and Brazil are impressive on both the auction front and its online financial payment platform. eBay
Finally, we have SINA
So keep watching the companies that lap expectations. Over time, it will be a rewarding experience for investors as the market rewards the overachievers. That's the kind of surprise we look for in the Rule Breakers newsletter service. Want in? Check out a 30-day trial subscription.
