The CAPS Screen: 10 Titans of Tech

Investors who want the highest possible returns buy stocks of rapidly growing, dominant companies with a sustainable competitive advantages. It is precisely such a strategy that has netted Motley Fool Rule Breakers subscribers 10 stocks that have doubled.

With that in mind, I used our new CAPS screening tool to find some potential rule-breaking stocks in the tech sector, a prime hunting ground for great growth stocks. Below you'll find 10 tech companies with trailing three-year earnings growth of 25% or more. They also have:

  • Market caps greater than $300 million
  • Five-star ratings, the highest possible, from our CAPS community

Remember, during the first year for which we have data, five-star companies outperformed with an average gain of nearly 28%.
