Not to be a wet blanket, but even though I agree with the *potential* growth, SURE is currently trading at 24 times sales. The S&P's P/S multiple is only 3.7 or so and "misc. capital goods" manufacturers average much lower than that.

Lots of room to grow the business into its price. And, if they can grow that fast, might they need more capital to do it? In the first half of this year, they burned more than $30 million from operations and CAPEX, and had about $39 million of cash and investments at 6/30.

As GST said, "speculative" seems an apt description. "Bandwagon" might be good too.
