Just last week, one of those Fools, ScalaAnalyst, succinctly summed up the Iridium bull case for our community:

Because it has fallen from grace recently, the price to the book ratio is becoming quite favorable. Although it has been hit hard because they haven't met every street analysts expectations, this stock is still show some great earnings growth and sales growth. Perhaps the Analysts should simply lower their expectations slightly. In a troubled market it is hard for a company to grow 20% annually, so, I could learn to live with 13% to 15% annual growth. Debt to equity ratio is low and they are cranking positive earnings. All together a win-win in my portfolio.

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 a strong four-star rating, Iridium may not be your top choice.
