3 Growth Stocks with Explosive Upside

Growth is oxygen. But when it evaporates, the consequences can be extreme - ask anyone who bought Cisco in the Dot-Com Bubble (Nvidia?) or newer investors who lived through the 2020 to 2022 COVID cycle.
The risks that can come from buying these assets is precisely why we started StockStory - to isolate the long-term winners from the losers so you can invest with confidence. That said, here are three growth stocks where the best is yet to come.
Pinterest (PINS)
One-Year Revenue Growth: +19.3%
Created with the idea of virtually replacing paper catalogues, Pinterest (NYSE: PINS) is an online image and social discovery platform.
Why Does PINS Stand Out?

-
Disciplined cost controls and effective management resulted in a strong two-year EBITDA margin of 26%
-
Impressive free cash flow profitability enables the company to fund new investments or reward investors with share buybacks/dividends
