First up. This is me regarding investing. Sorry if I sound a little dumb. My background is 3D printing. This is me trying to learn a bit else.
I bought 3D Systems at ~$9 around the time they tanked in 2014-15. I figured yes, they were overblown prior to that, but they'd make a comeback given their machines are pretty deeply entrenched in a commercial setting. DDD is now at 12.67. I kind of want to re-evaluate whether or not that company is going in a good direction and thought it would be fun to get some opinions.
Stratasys and DDD are the most entrenched in the commercial printer landscape last I checked with HP and GE trying to play catchup. Oh, and Carbon3D, but they're a bit of a wildcard to me and not publicly traded.
I don't see 3D printing evolving very fast in a consumer setting, unlike the way I saw it starting to take root right next to CNC machines in prototype shops as a standard tool.
Investing-wise, is it bad to gauge a company based on how they're doing on the ground?
