Growth Investing is an investment strategy that is primarily focused on capital appreciation.

Growth investors look forward to invest in what is called growth stocks—stocks issued by companies that exhibit above-average growth, i.e., companies whose earnings are expected to grow at an above-average rate compared to its industry.

Typically, growth investors are not too concerned about the current stock valuation. In fact, the most important factor is that the stocks have a long path of growth over the long term. The greater the growth, the better.

However, like value investors, growth investors heavily rely on fundamental analysis to base their investment thesis.
