This Week's Hidden Gems: (AMWD)(ANIP)

Great investing opportunities exist everywhere in the stock market. But how do you find them?

Tracey Ryniec, Stock Strategist at Zacks Investment Research, discusses two hidden gems that might be worth a closer look at by investors: American Woodmark Corporation (AMWD) and ANI Pharmaceuticals (ANIP).

Hidden gems are stocks that are followed only by a handful of Wall Street analysts and which the rest of the stock market doesn’t pay much attention to but they should because their fundamentals are strong. Less than a handful of analysts follow these two small cap companies. 

American Woodmark makes custom kitchen cabinets in Virginia. Fiscal first quarter sales rose 12% and margins improved. It is expected to grow its earnings by 21% this year. 

ANI Pharmaceutical produces generic and branded drug products in Minnesota. It just recently launched a flurry of new generic drugs, including an anti-cancer drug, which are expected to boost the bottom line. 

Earnings are expected to soar this year while its valuation remains attractive. ANI has a forward P/E of just 17. 

But what else should investors take away from these two companies? Watch our short video to learn more about these hidden gems.
