Apart from the big companies, I always invest in niche companies. Most people here will probably know that.
One of them that I have had in my portfolio for around 2.5 years is $LAUR (+0%) They run universities in the USA and Central America. The input for the investment at the time was that more and more people are studying in the USA as well as here in beautiful Germany. This is now also reflected in the share price. In the past 12 months, the share price has risen by around 90% and has now reached its ATH with a P/E ratio of 17. Historically speaking, this is still a fair value for the share. Despite reported sales and profit losses for the current financial year, there is currently only one direction for the share - upwards.
