On CAPS, 97% of the 1,143 members who have rated Infosys believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.
Just last week, one of those Fools, Robertgene, succinctly summed up the bull case for our community:
Infosys has no long term debt, almost 8x assets to liabilities, and a nice stockpile of cash. They have a corporate structure that puts integrity at the forefront, which is very hard to find nowadays. They have recently reorganized their business structure in order to implement more revenue streams. They already had room to grow in front of them, now it's even more amplified. Very low attrition, global presence, and great products and talent. In my opinion one of [the] most solid companies I've researched top-to-bottom.
