Sshares of 3D Systems Corporation DDD fell more than 10 percent Tuesday after 3D printing rival Stratasys, Ltd. SSYS issued disappointing preliminary FY14 results and FY15 guidance.

Hendi Susanto from Gabelli & Co has upgraded the stock to a Buy on Wednesday.

Stratasys' disappointing announcement was due not to demand, but to challenges implementing and scaling a new distribution model – a factor that may not carry over into 3D System’s earnings report.
