Top 10 Cheapest Stocks To Watch For 2014

Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:UBNT) shares have been in rally mode, particularly since reporting strong quarterly results in August, gaining 57 percent. Over the past three months, shares have climbed nearly 100 percent versus a 9 percent gain in the NASDAQ.

Despite the strong run, there is still room for additional upside. Ubiquiti's products, user community, and attractive pricing model have combined to create a truly sticky brand, and demand continues to grow incrementally.

Moreover, Ubiquiti's opportunity in the enterprise WLAN market is still largely underappreciated both from share gains and also from a shift to 802.11ac access points, which are priced at roughly four times the price of Ubiquiti's cheapest 802.11n access point.

802.11ac is the latest wireless networking standard, delivering three times the data transfer speeds of the current protocol with improved network robustness, reliability and RF bandwidth utilization efficiency for the most demanding applications and devices.

    Next example: same year (2000), same state (New Jersey), same product (food), different company ��Village Supermarket (VLGEA).

  • [By Geoff Gannon]

    Okay. So my point is just that a business is a business ��it�� not an industry. Just because a company is categorized in an industry doesn�� mean it works like the other companies in the industry. For example, Amazon (AMZN) and Best Buy (BBY) and Walgreens (WAG) and Village Supermarket (VLGEA) are all retailers. But they are all really, really different retailers. Technology changes have vastly different influences on them. They have completely different business models. They are actually trying to do totally different things. And you would analyze them ��especially starting with customer habits ��totally differently.

    Line up the return on capital lines ��for the last 10 years ��for Arden, Village (VLGEA), Weis, Harris Teeter (HTSI), and Kroger and you��l see that the grocer this analyst thinks is unique clearly isn��. Other grocers earn their cost of capital. They just aren�� as well known.
