Putting an end to the 'growth versus value' debate
Freddy Garcia, vice president for investments for Left Brain Wealth Management, says that the age-old fight between growth and value investors misdirects investors to pursue bad market timing, as has been evident this year when value stocks rebounded to lead the way through the first six months, but growth stocks have charged back in recent weeks. By focusing on 'sustainable revenue growth' -- a metric that many so-called 'value stocks' lack -- investors 'will be better off in the long run,' finding companies poised for positive results no matter which investment style market conditions favors at any moment.
