QuantumScape & 2 More Stocks Show Strong Earnings Acceleration

Top corporate officials and analysts prioritize persistent earnings growth, as it reflects a company's profitability. However, earnings acceleration has more impact on driving stock prices higher. This is because various studies have shown that stocks often experience an earnings surge before their stock value rises.

In this context, QuantumScape Corp., Delek Logistics Partners, LP and RingCentral, Inc. are showcasing impressive earnings acceleration.

What is Earnings Acceleration?

Earnings acceleration is the incremental growth in a company's earnings per share (EPS). In other words, if a company's quarter-over-quarter earnings growth rate increases within a stipulated time frame, it can be called earnings acceleration.

In the case of earnings growth, you pay for something that is already reflected in the stock price. However, earnings acceleration helps spot stocks that haven't yet caught the attention of investors and, once secured, will invariably lead to a rally in the share price. This is because earnings acceleration considers both the direction and magnitude of growth rates.

An increasing percentage of earnings growth means that the company is fundamentally sound and has been on the right track for a considerable period. Meanwhile, a sideways percentage of earnings growth indicates a period of consolidation or slowdown, while a decelerating percentage of earnings growth may drag prices down.

The above criteria narrowed the universe of around 7,735 stocks to only 13. Here are the top three stocks:
