Chicago, IL – November 26, 2025 – Stocks in this week’s article are — like Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. TTWO, Globus Medical, Inc. GMED, Rockwell Automation, Inc. ROK, Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. CNQ and VICI Properties Inc. VICI.
At present, the U.S. equity markets are volatile. Rising concerns over high valuations, sluggish economic signals and ambiguity over the Federal Reserve’s next moves are weighing on investor sentiments, especially in growth and AI-linked stocks. Given the uncertainty around rates and economic data, volatility is expected in the near term.
So, navigating such a situation to choose stocks and generate steady returns is difficult for retail investors. The traditional way of picking stocks is a good idea now. Sales growth provides a more reliable view for evaluating stocks compared with earnings-focused metrics. Stocks like Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., Globus Medical, Inc., Rockwell Automation, Inc., Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. and VICI Properties Inc. are worth betting on.
When evaluating a company, sales growth is often a more reliable indicator than earnings growth. Steady revenue expansion directly reflects underlying demand for a company’s products or services and provides clearer insight into the durability of its business model. Companies that can grow sales even during economic downturns typically demonstrate pricing power, competitive strength and the ability to gain market share.
Meanwhile, earnings can be distorted by one-off charges, cost-cutting, accounting adjustments or temporary margin expansions, making them a less dependable measure of long-term performance.
Sustained sales growth also supports more predictable cash flows, giving management the capacity to reinvest in operations, pursue strategic opportunities and maintain stability without excessive borrowing. Strong cash generation provides the financial resilience needed to navigate uncertainty and drive long-term value creation.
