On CAPS, 97% of the 1,156 members who have rated Infosys believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bulls include chocoswiss and All-Star huddaman, who is ranked in the top 5% of our community.

A few months ago, chocoswiss tapped Infosys as an honestly run opportunity: "Management practises practical, conservative and moral values in all decision makings. Good governance will pay-off in mid-long run."

Over the next five years, in fact, Infosys is expected to grow its bottom line at a brisk rate of 17% annually. That's faster than other IT consulting giants like Accenture (13%), HP (9%), and IBM (NYSE: IBM) (11%).

CAPS All-Star huddaman elaborates on the Infosys bull case:

A long term secular trend is in favor of Infosys's and other IT outsourcing and BPOs. ... These company's are growing revenues at 12-25% rate annually. They require very little investment, and didn't really feel any pain during 2008-2009 slowdown. The long term secular up-trend trumped the recession down trend. A 24 P/E makes this company undervalued. Only major risk is weaker corporate governance standard in India. However, [Morningstar] gives this company stewardship grade of B, which is pretty good.
