On CAPS, 97% of the 241 members who have rated WABCO believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Earlier this week, one of those bulls, Motley Fool Co-Founder David Gardner (TMFSpiffyPop), tapped WABCO as a stock worth looking into:

It's held up well in a relatively tough market for trucks. It is well managed, and I like their positioning. Kind of a TransDigm Group for trucks instead of planes, based on the little that I know of it. No deep research here, just going off a hunch (more of a sector hunch than anything) -- CAPS is for fun, too. Outperform.

If you want market-topping 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 five-star rating, WABCO may not be your top choice.
