Jamie CookCredit SuisseRepeat second-teamer Jamie Cook of Credit Suisse, who publishes reports on 22 companies, is applauded for her “thorough fundamental work and sound stock recommendations,” as one investor puts it. Cook, who also claims a runner-up spot in Machinery, also wins praise for her comprehensive coverage of Quanta Services, a Houston-based provider of outsourcing functions for construction and other industries. The analyst initiated coverage back in September 2007 with a buy rating after the company completed its acquisition of Media, Pennsylvania–based rival InfraSource Services; she predicted an expanded geographic reach would propel Quanta to market dominance. Cook pounded the table in August 2011, when the share price dipped to $17.35, and by the end of August 2012, the stock had leaped 38.3 percent, to $24, since the reiteration. “She stuck to her guns, and she was right,” affirms one booster.
