Will Congress pass Obamacare by the end of the year?






Short-sellers and hedge funds may be shadowy, but sometimes they're the smartest investors in the room. They've done their homework and are willing to bet their capital against the crowd -- an investing strategy that can be as lucrative as it is contrarian.

On Motley Fool CAPS, we've got our own leading analysts who find the chinks in a company's armor and correctly call its fall. Our "Underdogs" have earned 100 or more CAPS points by correctly predicting that one or more stocks would underperform the market.

Let's look at some of the recent calls these All-Star investors have made. But instead of studying more of their pessimistic picks, we'll focus on the stocks these top members expect will outperformthe market. If these CAPS investors have scored big by correctly predicting which stocks will fall, it may be worth our while to see which they think will succeed.
