Crossing Wall Street’s Eddy Elfenbein (@eddyelfenbein) loves this company.  It’s a member of his Buy List again in 2013.  His Buy List has whipped the S&P 500 for six straight years,

The 2012 trading year has come to a close. I’m happy to report that our Buy List had another market-beating year. The 20 stocks on the Crossing Wall Street Buy List gained 14.56% while the S&P 500 gained 13.41%. This is the sixth year in a row that we have beaten the market.

You’d have to be crazy not to read his blog.
