Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc. (JEC)

CAPS Rating:
*****

Provides a range of technical, professional, and construction services to a large number of industrial, commercial, and governmental clients around the world.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

This is a HUGE bull here on MF. I can't see it going higher for the next few months and even will take the leap to say, BEAR through the summer months. (And that makes my contrarian nature happy too...) Fool on!

JEC, along with others in the heavy construction area, should benefit greatly from an anticipated upcoming surge in domestic spending on infrastructure. It also has strong international sales, helping to add to revenues both from a sales diversity perspective and from favorable currency translations to the U.S. dollar.
