5 Growth Stocks to Buy Now This article is excerpted from Tom Yeung’s Profit Protection newsletter. To make sure you don’t miss any of Tom’s picks, subscribe to his mailing list here . Growth Investing Works On Tuesday, I introduced the Profit Protection playbook — a good, hard look into beating the markets with data. The big takeaway from that newsletter? Growth investing works. Stocks with high expected growth rates (both sales and earnings) and past growth tend to outperform over the following twelve months. That’s no news to venture capitalists or my Hypergrowth Investing colleague, Luke Lango. But there was a wrinkle: Turnarounds do even better. Stocks that had the worst sales growth in the prior year outperformed their high-growth counterparts by a 1.4-to-1 ratio. I can practically see Warren Buffett and InvestorPlace analyst Eric Fry smiling. But if you’re tired of all this theoretical fluff, I don’t blame you. We’re here for profits, not a lesson in data science or fortune-telling. So today, we’re going to use the Profit Protection playbook to identify five promising growth stocks that look set to ride out the upcoming 6 to 12 months.
