Not as many are following this under-the-radar industry…

Metal fabrication.

Yep. We’re eyeing the down n’ dirty industrial stuff. We strongly believe this underrated industry should be on your radar. Here’s why.

Furthermore, we can examine the individual Zen Ratings of stocks. With that system, we review 115 different factors to determine which stocks may be suitable for certain portfolios (including yours).

1. Insteel Industries (NYSE: IIIN) 

IIIN primarily manufactures steel wire reinforcing products for construction, and while this might seem like a relatively niche product, this type of wire is used in major infrastructure projects, various forms of concrete construction, foundations, and reinforcement (among other applications). This all ties IIIN with the global demand for infrastructure, which is not expected to disappear (though it might have its ups and downs).

IIIN also receives a Component Grade of A for Artificial Intelligence (our advanced AI algorithms anticipate superior stock price results). That, its recent strong reports regarding fiscal Q3, and its Growth and Sentiment Component Grades of B make it a stock worth watching.

2. Proto Labs (NYSE: PRLB)

Focusing more on custom prototypes and on-demand production parts, PRLB is working more in the modern injection molding and 3D printing space, where there is room for further innovation, growth, and new applications. Given future needs for specialized equipment in advanced technologies and research, PRLB looks to have a strong market for some time to come.

PRLB has also had an excellent time recently, with its share price rising +23.03 percent over the last month. This is partly due to investor confidence and partly due to good Q2 earnings and revenues. Yet even considering the recent growth and PRLB’s potential, it also has a Component Grade of A for Safety, indicating a stock with a more stable stock price and consistent cash flow, among other things.

3. Worthington Enterprises (NYSE: WOR)

A steel producer in the U.S. and across the world, WOR provides not only flat rolled steel but also some finished products and building products solutions. We recently covered it in a piece about industrial stocks, and the stock has dealt with the tariffs well.

The share price has risen about 53 percent in the last year, though this has mostly taken place from late March onward. Also, while it scores relatively poorly for safety, WOR has a Component Grade of B for Momentum, Sentiment, and Artificial Intelligence.
