Over on CAPS, fully 531 of 565 of the All-Star members who have rated Oracle -- some 94% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These All-Star bulls include ICoog and shop1, both of whom rank in the top 15% of our community.

Last year, ICoog reminded our CAPS community:

Oracle is a juggernaut. [Larry] Ellison is poised on making Oracle the top software company and he is not far from that day. Acquisitions of highly successful companies with extreme growth will see to that.

A more recent pitch from shop1 -- it was posted to our site just last month -- shared that bullish attitude and focused on Oracle's dominance and attractive long-term prospects:

Revenue, net income and EPS have increased year over year. The company has continued to pursue an aggressive expansion plan that has helped the company to diversify its products and increase revenue. Oracle is now the leading seller of databases that help computers & software interact. With its strong balance sheet & aggressive growth plan, Oracle should continue to outperform for years to come.
