3. Growth Stocks
• Growth stocks are those companies expected to grow sales and
earnings at a faster rate than the market average.
• Growth stocks often look expensive, trading at a high P/E ratio,
but such valuations could actually be cheap if the company
continues to grow rapidly which will drive the share price up.
• Since investors are paying a high price for a growth stock,
based on expectation, if those expectations aren't realized
growth stocks can see dramatic declines.
• Growth stocks typically don't pay dividends.
• Growth stocks are often put in contrast with value stocks.
4. Understanding Growth Stocks
• Growth stocks may appear in any sector or industry and
typically trade at a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio.
• They may not have earnings at the present moment but are
expected to in the future.
• Investment in growth stocks can be risky. Because they typically
do not offer dividends, the only opportunity an investor has to
earn money on their investment is when they eventually sell
their shares.
• If the company does not do well, investors take a loss on the
stock when it's time to sell.
• Growth stocks tend to share a few common traits.
5. Growth Stocks vs. Value Stocks
• Growth stocks differ from value stocks.
• Investors expect growth stocks to earn substantial capital gains
as a result of strong growth in the underlying company.
• This expectation can result in these stocks appearing
overvalued because of their generally high price-to-earnings
(P/E) ratios.
• On the contrary, value stocks are often underrated or ignored by
the market, but they may eventually gain value.
• Investors also attempt to profit from the dividends they typically
pay.
• Value stocks tend to trade at a low price to earnings (P/E) ratio.
6. Fastest Growing Gold Stocks
• These are the top gold stocks as ranked by a growth model that
scores companies based on a 50/50 weighting of their most recent
quarterly year-over-year (YOY) percentage revenue growth and their
most recent quarterly YOY earnings-per-share (EPS) growth.
• Both sales and earnings are critical factors in the success of a
company.
• Therefore ranking companies by only one growth metric makes a
ranking susceptible to the accounting anomalies of that quarter (such
as changes in tax law or restructuring costs) that may make one or
the other figure unrepresentative of the business in general.
Companies with quarterly EPS or revenue growth of over 2,500%
were excluded as outliers.

12. Growth Stock FAQs
What Is Considered to Be a Growth Stock?
• When it comes to stocks, "growth" means that the company has
substantial room for capital appreciation. These tend to be newer
and smaller-cap companies, and/or those in growth sectors like
technology or biotech. Growth stocks may have low or even negative
earnings, often making the high P/E stocks.
Are Growth Stocks Risky?
• As with all investing, there is a fundamental trade-off between risk
and return. Growth stocks provide a greater potential for future
return, and are thus equally matched by greater risk than other types
of investments like value stocks or corporate bonds. The main risk is
that the realized or expected growth doesn't continue into the future.
Investors have paid a high price expecting one thing, and not getting
it. In such cases, a growth stock's price can fall dramatically.
13. Growth Stock FAQs - I
What Is an Example of a Growth Stock?
• As a hypothetical example, a growth stock would be a biotech startup that has
begun work on a promising new cancer treatment. Currently, the product is only
in the Phase I stage of clinical trials, and there is uncertainty whether the FDA will
approve the drug candidate to continue on to Phase II & III trials. If the drug
passes, and is ultimately approved for use, it could mean huge profits and capital
gains. If, however, the drug either doesn't work as planned or causes severe side
effects, all of that R&D spending may have been in vain.
How Do You Know If a Stock Is Growth or Value?
• Instead of looking to future growth potential, value stocks are those that are
thought to trade below what they are really worth and will thus theoretically
provide a superior return as their stock prices catch up with fundamentals. Unlike
growth stocks, which typically do not pay dividends, value stocks often have
higher than average dividend yields. Value stocks also tend to have strong
fundamentals with comparably high price-to-book (P/B) ratios and low P/E
values—the opposite of growth stocks.
