Find the Best Stocks to Buy Now for High Growth (2025)
It’s little wonder that growth stocks have a reputation as exciting, high-reward investing opportunities. After all, some of the most successful stocks — think Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), and Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) — started as growth stocks.
However, not every stock experiencing rapid development will go on to dominate the stock market. The potential for high rewards comes with increased risk. A company showing high revenue growth doesn’t necessarily equal a great investment.
Keep reading to learn:
- How to discern the best stocks for growth versus those benefiting from temporary market trends

What is a Growth Stock?
A growth stock is a company whose revenue, earnings, or market share is expanding at a significantly faster rate than the market average or its industry peers.
Companies that prioritize rapid revenue and earnings growth often reinvest profits instead of paying dividends, betting their money on expansion, innovation, and market dominance.
True Growth Stocks Vs. Temporary Market Trends
In the stock market, a security's success can last for minutes — or decades. How can you tell the difference between a stock that's portfolio-worthy for the long haul versus one fueled by temporary market hype?
True growth stocks typically have strong fundamentals, such as consistent revenue growth, expanding profit margins, and a competitive edge (for example, proprietary technology or brand dominance). They also have a scalable business model and demonstrate resilience across market cycles, such as during periods of high interest rates or other major economic events.
In contrast, stocks driven by temporary market trends — say, meme stocks or companies capitalizing on short-lived trends — often rely on speculative momentum but lack solid financials and struggle to sustain growth once the fad fades. The decline can happen fast — for instance, a company that was killing it in the fourth quarter could report a net loss by their next earnings report.
Key Characteristics of Top Growth Stocks
Here are some characteristics to look for before you buy:
- Consistent Revenue and Earnings Growth: Don’t just look for recent earnings spikes. Look for steady year-over-year revenue and earnings increases over time.
- Expanding Profit Margins and Scalability: Growth companies often have expanding profit margins, meaning they become more efficient as they scale. Ideally, look for growth across various business segments rather than in just one area.
- Competitive Advantage & Industry Trends: The best growth stocks have a strong moat, such as innovative technology, brand dominance, or network effects. They also operate in fast-growing industries — right now, some examples of areas where demand is expected to rise long term include AI, cloud computing, and biotech.
A Note of Caution
Perhaps the biggest misconception in growth investing is that the best way to generate fast returns is to buy shares of the fastest-growing companies.
In reality, stocks with the highest projected growth rates tend to deliver the worst stock price performance. At first glance, this might seem like a strange concept, so let’s break it down.
When a company is expected to grow earnings by 30%+ per year, its stock experiences a surge in price, often experiencing a powerful period of price appreciation. But it is often unsustainable.
Why? Because the competition takes notice, adapts, and fights to gain market share. Maintaining that pace becomes nearly impossible.
Even if a company’s growth slows from 30% to a still-impressive 20%, it can be catastrophic for the stock if investors and analysts pricing it for higher expectations. The moment those investors and analysts realize the period of extreme growth is over, you can safely expect them to move on — and the stock price can collapse.
So, if you shouldn't buy solely based on rapid expansion and price action, what should you look for? Consistent, sustainable growth.
As for how to identify it…
Identifying High-Growth Stocks
Identifying stocks with growth potential requires a combination of research, analysis, and due diligence.
Our Best Stocks to Buy Now for High Growth screener can help you easily focus on stocks with a high Zen Rating for Growth.
As part of its overall 115-factor review of the 4600+ stocks we track, our quant model assesses 21 different measures of Growth. It considers sales and earnings growth, but it also looks for gains in revenue, cash flow, profit margins, and EBITDA to ensure that companies with strong or underrated growth prospects make the cut.
After all, the more consistent these gains, particularly across multiple growth measures, the more likely the stock's price will continue to appreciate.
However, that doesn’t tell the whole story. That’s why it’s important to take a big-picture view.
Think Beyond Growth
This may sound counterintuitive, but when looking for high-quality growth stocks to buy, it’s worth considering more than just growth, such as:
- Market Position: Companies with a strong market position, such as a dominant market share or a unique product offering, are more likely to experience high growth. A competitive edge can help a company maintain its growth momentum even in challenging market conditions.
- Industry Trends: Identify industries that are experiencing high growth and look for companies that are well-positioned to benefit from these trends. For example, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and biotech are currently seeing significant price appreciation and offer numerous opportunities.
- Value: While high-growth stocks can be expensive, look for companies that appear to be a good value relative to their growth prospects. A high price-to-earnings ratio might be justified if the company has strong future growth potential.
- Financial Health: Look for companies with a strong balance sheet, low debt, and a high return on equity. Financial stability ensures that a company can weather economic downturns and continue to invest in profitable growth opportunities.
Zen Ratings can help you gain this type of bigger-picture view. In addition to reviewing 22 Growth Factors, it also zeroes in on 93 other Factors that can greatly increase the likelihood of outperforming the market, including 21 Value Factors, 26 Financial Factors, and more.

Locating the best growth stocks isn’t just about locating the most impressive price action in the market.
