On CAPS, 92% of the 173 members who have rated Yandex believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward.

Just yesterday, one of those Fools, TornettaJ, succinctly summed up the Yandex bull case for our community:

Over the next five years I expect this [company’s] growth to explode. … They’ve recently been trying to expand outside of native Russia, which would prove their ability to succeed outside of Russian-speaking countries, and make a step toward becoming a competitor to Google. … Definitely a stock to watch. It has many of the characteristics of Google here in the US in terms of growth and potential, but the downside is the nightmare Russia brings for business.

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