Over on CAPS, 571 of the 597 members who have rated ValueClick -- or 96% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500. These Foolish bulls include MintCoin and JPresbrown.

Earlier this month, MintCoin listed a few of the stock's bullish points: "Growth, no debt, very nice cash flow, about 30% undervalued relative to the market. If the object is better returns than the S&P this one should do nicely."

In a pitch from last month, JPresbrown agreed, elaborating on ValueClick's solid financial position and attractive valuation (which is even cheaper today):

This is a rapidly growing company with a pristine balance sheet (no debt, over $1 a share in cash) and positive cash flow. Hammered by market because advertising is economically sensitive, but this is well-reflected in current bargain price (14 [times] earnings and 1.2 [times] sales). May be volatile, especially if market continues down in 4thQ, but should make a great entry point for in the long-term.
