NVIDIA and 2 Stocks to Buy for Earnings Growth

To determine earnings, subtract production costs from revenues. Consistent earnings growth is crucial for all companies since survival depends on profitability. Earnings are also considered the most important factor influencing share prices.  However, expectations of earnings play a significant role. Still, stocks like NVIDIA Corporation NVDA, Alphabet Inc. GOOGL and JPMorgan Chase & Co. JPM are currently demonstrating strong earnings growth. Earnings Estimates & Share Price MovementsWe have frequently seen a decline in stock prices despite earnings growth, followed by a rally in prices after an earnings decline. This is largely the result of a company’s earnings failing to meet market expectations.Earnings estimates embody analysts’ opinions 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 a firm's cash flow to determine its fair value.Thus, investors should be on the lookout for stocks ready to make a big move. Hence, investors need to buy stocks with historical earnings growth and are seeing a rise in quarterly and annual earnings estimates. Screening Measures Using Research Wizard:To shortlist stocks that have striking earnings growth and positive estimate revisions, we have added the following parameters:Zacks Rank less than or equal to 2 (Only Zacks' 'Buys' and 'Strong Buys' are allowed.
