On CAPS, 98% of the 5,434 members who have rated Corning believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Just last month, one of those Fools, madison110, succinctly summed up the Corning bull case for our community:

“Global glass technology leader” may be a pretty substantial moat for this mature and experienced company. [Corning] products become part of products that we will need more of for the foreseeable future: smartphones and construction.

With the explosive growth of smartphones worldwide, many investors thought they would ride Corning’s dominant cover glass to massive investment returns. That hasn’t played out yet, as mobile growth has failed to offset declines in the company’s core business.

Just last month, one of those Fools, JoeArizona, succinctly summed up the InvenSense bull case for our community:

Motion-tracking is a big deal. InvenSense makes reliable, tiny gyroscopes, and there are lots of customers looking for smart phones out there. Tons of growth potential.

If you want market-topping returns, you need to put together the best portfolio you can. Of course, despite its perfect five-star rating, InvenSense may not be your top choice.

Why RealD Is Poised to Underperform

Leave a comment

By Brian Pacampara, Pacampara, The Motley Fool

Based on the aggregated intelligence of 180,000-plus investors participating in Motley Fool CAPS, the Fool’s free investing community, 3-D movie technologist RealD has received the dreaded one-star ranking.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at RealD and see what CAPS investors are saying about the stock right now.

RealD facts

Headquarters (founded)

Beverly Hills, Calif. (2003)

Market Cap

$610.4 million

Industry

Electronic equipment and instruments

Trailing-12-Month Revenue

$220.2 million

Management

Co-Founder/Chairman/CEO Michael Lewis

COO/CFO Andrew Skarupa

Return on Equity (average, past 3 years)

(14.2%)

Cash/Debt

$27.7 million / $35.0 million

Competitors

Dolby Labs

IMAX

NVIDIA

Sources: S&P Capital IQ and Motley Fool CAPS.

On CAPS, 31% of the 85 members who have rated RealD believe the stock will underperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Just yesterday, one of those Fools, KarmaInvestor, succinctly summed up the RealD bear case for our community:

[RealD] is a fad with a very finite shelf life. They have no new innovation. About 70 % of their gross comes from overseas and that will fade as well once [C]hina and [R]ussia move onto the next new thing. The company’s own buy back is manipulating the stock price higher — nothing justifies the high P/E. [W]ith this, losses, over priced officers and no dividends why would this company ever increase substantially. [IMAX] much better value.

If you want market-topping returns, you need to protect your portfolio from any undue risk.

Why Power-One Is Poised to Bounce Back

Based on the aggregated intelligence of 180,000-plus investors participating in Motley Fool CAPS, the Fool’s free investing community, power supply products manufacturer Power-One has earned a respected four-star ranking.

With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at Power-One and see what CAPS investors are saying about the stock right now.

Camarillo, Calif. (1973)

On CAPS, 94% of the 644 members who have rated Power-One believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Just last week, one of those Fools, cgtombstone, succinctly summed up the Power-One bull case for our community:

Everything in the world runs on power and the type of power is never right, you AC when you need DC, DC when you need AC, high voltage when you need low, etc. Power-One makes the most efficient power converters out there, it’s not just an “alt energy” play, they can save power on every device, every server farm, every house, (again) etc. Steep discount as people only see the solar side, nowhere to go but up.

If you want market-beating returns, you need to put together the best portfolio you can. Of course, despite a strong four-star rating, Power-One may not be your top choice.
