3 Top Stocks to Invest in for Attractive Earnings Growth

Earnings growth is the most important variable influencing the share price. After all, earnings growth is the highest priority for the top brass of any organization. This is because if the company doesn’t make money, it won’t last over the long haul.

Study a company’s revenues over a given period, subtract the cost of production, and you have earnings. But, expectations of earnings also play a significant role.

Earnings Estimates & Share Price Movements

Often, we have seen a decline in the stock price despite earnings growth and a rally in price following an earnings decline. This is largely the result of a company’s earnings failing to meet market expectations.

Earnings estimates embody analysts’ opinion on factors such as sales growth, product demand, competitive industry environment, profit margins and cost control. Thus, earnings estimates serve as a valuable tool while making investment decisions. Earnings estimates also help analysts assess the cash flow to determine the fair value of a firm.

Investors, thus, should be on the lookout for stocks that are ready to make a big move. Hence, it is important for investors to buy stocks that have historical earnings growth and are seeing a rise in quarterly and annual earnings estimates.

Here are the top three stocks that stand out:

e.l.f. Beauty operates as a cosmetic company. Its cosmetic category primarily consists of face makeup, eye makeup, lip products, nail products and cosmetics sets/kits. ELF currently has a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). ELF’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is nearly 31%. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank stocks here.

Tecnoglass is engaged in manufacturing and selling architectural glass and windows and aluminum products for the residential and commercial construction industries. TGLS currently has a Zacks Rank #1. TGLS’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is 76.4%.

Sterling Infrastructure, Inc. operates through subsidiaries within segments specializing in E-Infrastructure, Building and Transportation Solutions, principally in the United States. STRL currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). STRL’s expected earnings growth rate for the current year is 47.4%.
