Every week, I look at a few companies that have surpassed their profit targets. Leaving Wall Street's pros with quizzical expressions usually means the companies have more in the tank than analysts figured, and capital appreciation often follows.
Let's examine at a few companies that humbled the prognosticators over the past few trading days.
We can start with SINA
The victory probably didn't surprise market watchers. SINA relies on online advertising for all but a third of its revenue, and other interactive-marketing specialists, such as Sohu.com
Blockbuster
Finally, we have Giant Interactive
So keep watching the companies that exceed expectations, because the market rewards the overachievers. Those are the kind of surprises we look for in the Rule Breakers newsletter service. Want in?
