3D printing stocks are a favorite for momentum investors. The 3D printing sector is certainly in the growth phase, but some analysts believe that the stocks are priced expensively, which is not in favor of the investors. The industry has been relatively flat since its existence in 1980, however, in recent years, some momentum has been witnessed owing to lower printer prices and better software.
