I'm stepping a little outside of my circle of competence here, and am also a little late to the party. The articles below explain why I think (even at this price) US Silica Holdings will continue to outperform for awhile longer. In summary, they sell dirt, and it's in high demand!

US drilling is booming due to fracturing the tight reservoir. This company produces the sand used in fracing.

StockScouter only has an undesirable 3 rating on this at the moment, but what I see on finviz.com lead me to believe that this is actually worth more than $60.

The charts say this has bottomed out so I'll keep this pick active for now.
