	Capital Management Report - Growth stocks, value stocks... What's the difference? - Mutual of America
		Growth investors search for companies whose revenues and earnings are growing rapidly, generally at an annual pace of 15 percent or more.
		However, due to the high expectations for performance, growth stocks may be punished harshly by investors if their companies fail, by even a few cents, to meet earnings projections.
		For instance, they're affordable; also, since the stock is already selling at a discount, a disappointing quarter may not cause it to decline as steeply as a growth stock would.

	Competitive Advantages of Growth Stocks
		Growth stocks, of course, are supposed to grow their earnings year in and year out.
		In fact, dividends were essential to early growth stock advocates, in the 1930s, because they viewed growth stocks as a way to rapidly grow their investment income.
		With or without dividends, investing in growth stocks for the long term is an investment style that has stood the test of time.

	TheStreet.com: Wanted: Homes for Orphaned Growth Stocks
		When great growth stocks go bust -- e.g., after they announce that sales are slowing down -- they tend to free-fall in price until caught by cheapskate value managers.
		Growth managers, for instance, are unlikely to snap up Cisco shares in bulk until its executives clearly say that sales are back on track.
		First, though, she has some hard and fast rules about stocks that make her short list: They must be trading at the low end of their five-year P/E range, they must have great excess cash flow, they must have a great balance sheet and they must have a low market capitalization relative to sales.

	Are Value Stocks Riskier than Growth Stocks?
		And almost by definition, growth stocks are the heart and soul of a bubble—it is difficult indeed to spin a convincing story around a distressed company in an out-of-favor industry.
		Bubbles, by their very nature, revolve around the supposedly unlimited growth possibilities of the transformative technologies of the age—the Internet in the late 1990s, mainframe computers and airlines in the 1960s, radio and electrical utilities in the 1920s, and British railroads in the 1840s.
		I submit, then, that although value and growth stocks have their own unique risks, those of growth stocks are more regular and pervasive.

	Signs pointing to the return of growth stocks' strength (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Value stocks had a distinct advantage earlier this year, as they often do in the first part of a recovery, when companies in the most economically sensitive industries -- such as producers of cars, steel and housing -- post the sharpest gains.
		To novice investors, the difference between growth and value stocks might not be obvious, but among financial professionals, few things inspire more passionate debate than which of these investing styles is a better long-term strategy.
		This sort of speculative growth stock differs from quality growth stocks that have reasonable expectations of growth and a track record of delivering better-than-average growth in the past.

	Fool.com: Are Growth Stocks Overvalued? [Commentary] July 16, 2003
		In it, I pointed out that these stocks carried reasonably modest valuations on a historical basis, at least when comparing their price-to-free cash flow metrics to their growth rates.
		The purpose of the article was to point out that although many were questioning the market's valuation, the downside risk for long-term investors was as low then for growth stocks as it had been for quite a long time.

		Suppose a stock is not currently paying any dividends, and its management has announced that it will not pay a dividend for at least five years, but that it does expect to start paying dividends sometime in the future.
		The value of the stock is determined solely by bids from people who want to control the company in order to draw salaries.
		The value of the stock could be found by discounted cash flow procedures, but we would have to insert zeros for Dt until such time as we expect the company to begin paying dividends.

		With the stock market rallying on investor hopes for the kind of strong economic recovery that plays into Merrill Lynch's earnings leverage, it's not surprising that in that May 1 to Aug. 15 period, Merrill shares are up 30.1%, about twice the gain in the Nasdaq.

	Mellon Equity Reverses Outlook: Growth Stocks will Now Lead Market
		PITTSBURGH, February 14, 2005 — Growth stocks are expected to outperform value stocks in the large-cap equity market in early 2005, according to a style-allocation model recently developed by Mellon Equity Associates.
		The model was developed in 2004 and correctly predicted that value stocks would outperform growth stocks between April 2004 and the end of the year.
		In deciding whether to favor growth or value stocks, the Mellon Equity model analyzes interest rate spreads, the term structure of interest rates, and several valuation and profitability indicators for baskets of stocks of both investment styles.

	M3 Growth and Stocks
		Year-over-year monetary inflation or growth is running full steam ahead on all cylinders, as mega-inflationist Alan Greenspan continues to zealously compete with 18th Century France’s John Law for the dubious crown of being remembered as the most notorious debaser of currency in all of world history.
		We know that 10w M3 growth is just under the lowest that we have witnessed since at least 1989, that annual M3 growth is pushing its lowest levels since the terminal blowoff stage of the bubble ignited in the mid-1990s, and that we truly could be on the very verge of extraordinary monetary events.
		Perhaps 6% annual M3 growth, near the lowest levels witnessed in about 8 years, and the unprecedented in the bubble years -1.3% 10w M3 shrinkage will indeed prove to reduce liquidity pressure low enough that the US markets will be unable to levitate near their current unnaturally high levels approaching 30x earnings any longer.

		He says, "stocks hitting new highs consistently beat stocks that are 'cheap,' or hitting new lows." He avoids stocks trading under book value.
		Specifically, I require passing stocks to 1) be trading within 15% of their 52-week highs, and 2) also show a significant increase in daily trading volume (last month's average daily volume was at least 20% higher than the average volume over the past year).
		To insure that earnings growth is indeed accelerating, I also require the last quarter's EPS growth rate to be at least 10% higher than the trailing 12-months' rate.
