Aug 18th. >Market standouts: For the second day running on Thursday, investors fell over themselves trying to buy shares in Amtech Systems (ASYS), a little known chip equipment maker with no analyst coverage. The stampede started on Wednesday when Amtech said that it had received a $6.4 million order for capital gear used to make high-speed fiber optics equipment, a development that marked its initial foray into a space that's both potentially lucrative and increasingly popular among investors. Amtech declined to identify its new customer, other than to say it was "a well-financed European company." Among Amtech's other customers are U.S. chipmakers Intel (INTC) and Motorola (MOT).
