100 Fastest Growing. . . .Try comparing these to their PE and PG ratios and their cash position. . . . fortune.com Proof that there ARE "bargains" out there. It just takes more legwork to identify them. Certain tech stocks are simply MORE VALUABLE than others. They don't all grow at the same rate, so placing valuation on a tech stock should be heavily influenced by their growth rates. . . .this list shows EPS Growth, Revenue Growth and Total Return. Next step is to compare the best looking prospects to their reports for future quarters. As Kaliico pointed out for us, there are plenty of techs with positive forward guidance. The combination of these factors with an eye on sales growth, debt ratio and a few other fundamentals to make sure there is no wrench in the works. . . . and we have ourselves a "Bargain Tech"!! So to the question we've all asked ourselves a hundred times, "how do I know it won't just keep on going down?" . . . the question which seemed not to have an answer. . . actually does. . . . summed up as: "Intensive Due Diligence". One thing that is significant about that list that is quite striking. The fastest growing companies in America are not all tech stocks! There are quite a cross-section of companies there. And that fact alone, should give us pause. . . especially when so many "favorite techs" are NOT on the list. . . some have not shown a profit. . . and some are not really growing at all. Ignore these facts and the related due diligence at your own risk!! Happy hunting out there, Rande Is
