RBC Analyst Predicts 'Significant Acceleration' Consumer Growth for 3-D Printing

Today RBC analyst Amit Daryanani suggested that investors look to 3-D Systems DDD and Stratasys SSYS upon his prediction that consumer 3-D printing growth will "significantly accelerate" in the near-term. As the basis for his prediction Daryanani cited a multiple sector survey of `1,300 individuals. Looking at these two companies, Daryanani estimates 3-D systems may be able to sustain revenue growth over 25 percent for the next few years and believes it is likely that Stratasys will sustain a 43 percent revenue CAGR and a 47 percent EPS CAGR from fiscal year 2009-2015. The Street doesn't appear to be reacting much to this prediction as shares of the two companies were about even for the day, at last check.
