This might be an area for investment...:)

3D printing stocks are having a great 2017, after several very tough years. The stocks of the two largest players, 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) and Stratasys (NASDAQ:SSYS), for example, have gained 66.3% and 66.6%, respectively, this year through June 19, versus the S&P 500's 10.7% return.
Investors who are interested in 3D printing stocks but don't want to bet on just one player or even a couple of companies, have another option: a 3D-printing exchange-traded fund (ETF). We're going to explore the best (and only, to my knowledge) ETF focused on this space, The 3D Printing ETF (NYSEMKT:PRNT), to see if it's worth investing in.
