Over on CAPS, fully 564 of the 580 members who have rated AECOM -- some 97% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These Fools include Hoping2Retire and Genkibro.

In October, Hoping2Retire included AECOM as one of the more attractive ways to play infrastructure:

There will be significant pressure for new infrastructure project investments in U.S. and Europe to reduce unemployment in the next several years. Additionally Asia will continue its massive investments in this area and, accordingly, architecture and engineering firms should do well.

In a pitch from two days ago, Genkibro agrees with that line of thinking, writing:

Loose money and emphasis on infrastructure will give heavy construction a charge, Aecom does nice work.... They also have year-over-year earnings growth of over 45% a PEG below 1.0, and a good track record all over the planet, so whatever region recovers and grows, they will have a chance to be part of it.
