Do you think Amazon.com (AMZN) is a growth machine like no other?
It’s a beast to be sure, with the most recently-reported quarterly top line up a healthy 22%… a pace that’s pretty much been the norm for a while now. Profits are growing nicely as well, as its AWS (Amazon Web Services) division–the company’s fastest-growing segment–produces high-margin revenue.
Amazon.com certainly isn’t the only growth name worth owning, however. There are several other companies with even better sales growth, better earnings growth or both. It’s just a matter of going out there and finding them.
Just to help you move down that path a little faster, here’s a closer look at the best stocks to buy if you’re looking for a little more kick (or a little more value) than Amazon can offer.
Some are familiar, while some aren’t. But all of them merit consideration.
