On CAPS, 97% of the 501 members who have rated ROIC believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Earlier this week, one of those Fools, TMFTailwind, tapped ROIC as a particularly timely bargain opportunity: "Good place to start another long-term bet on stellar management (real estate mogul Stuart Tanz). Expecting boring, steady growth complemented by a nice yield. 10+ year time frame on this one."   

If you want market-thumping returns, you need to put together the best portfolio you can. Of course, despite a perfect five-star rating, ROIC may not be your top choice. If that's the case, we've compiled a special free report for investors called "The 3 Dow Stocks Dividend Investors Need," which uncovers a few other juicy income opportunities.
