Stratasys, Inc. (NASDAQ:SSYS)

I recently put an outperform call on DDD and am taking the fall in SSYS stock today to do the same for it. I think 3D printing is a speculative but potentially very profitable business over the long term.

3D printing is the wave of the future. But could you create a 3D printer so powerful that it could print ANOTHER 3D printer?! Be very afraid of that, investors!

one of three companies positioned to capitalize on an emerging mega-trend

Price seems low for this early mover in the infant industry of 3D printing. Will be interesting to see where this sits in 5 years.

Growth as long as a big competitor doesn't eat their lunch.

Still priced for perfection.

3 D printing is cool

Good opportunity to get an exciting growth story after a sharp pullback.

I like this stock and 3d systems, the two leaders in 3d printing at the moment. 3d printing technology is really just getting off the ground, and we as a society don't have the slightest idea what it could be capable of in the future. Don't look at the P/E with this company, that's stupid. In fact, all the traditional metrics except maybe growth rate are gonna look stupid. This is a company with no debt and technology with limitless potential. Even if there's a decent chance this one's quite overvalued at the moment, I think it's worth buying now, after the recent drop in prices, as this is potentially a game-changer and I wouldn't want to miss out on the opportunity to buy.

If you don't know anything about 3d printing I would do some research because it is really cool and I think one way or another it's going to be used much much much more in the future.

This is a small/mid cap high growth stock that should outperform the S&P during the bull market.

Rapid prototyping will help a large variety of businesses. Plus I have a feeling they'll be coming out with a commecial 3d printer that willl be affordable for small businesses

Using CAPS as a way to keep an eye on this stock. I think it'll be a bumpy ride over the next few years, and I'll wait for a better entry point in my real portfolio.

Proprietary Technology and high margin re- occuring revenue from supplies

First, people overestimate the usefulness of printed parts - they have very little strength, hardness, etc. We'll be CNC machining things out of aluminum for many more decades.

Second, my 14 year old built a Mendel that prints pretty well. Stratasys is going to have competitors coming from all directions.

Maybe a HG that will exploded?

NY Times - 3D Printers

computer based systems, aggressive small growth - big deal with HP, expected to triple revenue in 3 years, 41% market share, slightly behind 3D systems in revenue but sells more units, 25% annual growth over the next 3 years

Very interesting technology, fragmented market in terms of technology. best value add of technology cos usable in office space, others are not...
