On CAPS, 93% of the 373 members who have rated Angie's List believe the stock will underperform the S&P 500 going forward.
Just last week, one of those Fools, All-Star zzlangerhans, succinctly summed up the bear case for our ommunity:
[Angie's List] was a great idea initially, to charge consumers reviews of local contractors and such. But lately, as competitors have started to pop up, it has become somewhat of an extortion scheme of the unsuspecting. Expect this company to continue underperforming.
