StockStory, an investment research platform, on May 29, 2026, identified pump manufacturer Gorman-Rupp (NYSE: GRC) as a long-term small-cap opportunity, while advising investors to avoid recreational vehicle maker THOR Industries (NYSE: THO) and homebuilder LGI Homes (NASDAQ: LGIH). Gorman-Rupp, with a market capitalization of $1.98 billion, traded at $74.88 per share, representing a trailing 12-month price-to-sales ratio of 2.9x.

The platform flagged heightened downside risk for both, citing valuation concerns and limited competitive scale relative to larger industry peers.
