Over on CAPS, fully 384 of the 392 members who have rated Net Servicos -- some 98% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bulls include TexasChris and sempire.

In June, TexasChris tapped the stock as an ideal way to capture some hot Brazilian growth:

South America is finally being allowed to stabilize and with it comes prosperity. With that prosperity you will see this economy bloom before you know it. Brazil will be at the forefront. This stock is like investing in the idea of the worldwide web in the 80's.

In a pitch from four days ago, sempire expands on that "developing" theme:

Companies that are bringing new technologies to emerging markets are definitely a plus. There is a growing trend of 3rd world countries growing in personal income, and craving newer technologies. A lot of these countries are a few years behind, and as technology is getting cheaper and poorer countries are now less poor, it is easy to put new technology into their hands cheaper, and for more profit.
