Just a couple of days ago, one of those bulls, toadaly, tapped the stock as a solid bargain opportunity:

Transportadora de Gas Del Sur is a very profitable and undervalued company, in spite of the world glut of natural gas. The shares are selling below book, they have plenty of cash on hand, profit margins are good. The only negative is that they simply cannot sustain the dividend at its current absurd level. The yield *must* drop down to no more than about 10% to be sustainable. But hey, an undervalued company in a hated industry that pays 10%? Sign me up. 

If you want market-beating returns, you need to put together the best portfolio you can. Owning exceptional stocks is a surefire way to secure your financial future. Of course, despite its four-star rating, Transportadora may not be your top choice.
