June 6, 2016 - Investorideas.com, a global news
source covering tech stocks releases its new directory of 3D Printer Stocks for
investors following the sector. According to a report released in January this
year from CONTEXT, an IT market research company, “Worldwide shipments of 3D
Printers rose +35% year-to-date (YTD) through the first three quarters of 2015
on the back of shipments of low priced Personal/Desktop 3D Printers. Of the total 173,962 units shipped
year-to-date, 95% of these were Personal/Desktop printers, mostly priced below
$5,000.
This represents a 38% YEAR-ON-YEAR growth for this
