2 Superior Growth Stocks to Buy in 2026
Motley Fool analyst John Ballard identifies Nvidia (NVDA) and Meta Platforms (META) as two top growth stocks, arguing both trade at valuations that understate their earnings potential. Nvidia's fiscal 2027 Q1 revenue surged 85% year over year to $82 billion, with Q2 guidance around $91 billion and full-year revenue expected to rise 82% to $392 billion; the stock's forward P/E of 23 is roughly half its 45% long-term earnings growth rate.
Why it matters: Meta Platforms reported Q1 revenue of $56 billion, up 33% year over year, and its flat year-to-date stock performance may set up stronger gains heading into 2027.
