Top 5 Cheapest Companies To Own In Right Now

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.

    Of course, a great bet also involves many risks. Even though LCD technology became very popular in these last few years, both in TV screens and computer monitors, we should never miss the fact that technological markets are often exposed to products becoming obsolete due to the development of new, more efficient technology. Without going any further, it�� easy to recall the plasma display panel (PDP) fiasco, an apparently promising market in the 1990s and early 2000s but quickly replaced by LCDs (by 2008 LCDs sell 21.1 million units, almost 10 times PDP sales on the same year). Even Panasonic Corporation (PCRFF) announced it will interrupt production of PDP on 2014.
