In this article, we discuss 12 best growth stocks under $25. If you want to skip our discussion on the performance of growth stocks, head directly to 5 Best Growth Stocks Under $25.

In 1992, Fama and French explained the principles of value and growth investing styles. Value stocks have high book-to-market-value ratios, which means they have low prices relative to their intrinsic value and are perceived as undervalued due to high dividend yields. On the other hand, Fama and French described growth stocks as having low book-to-market-value ratios, indicating their potential to grow cash flows over time and generate higher returns on assets, which might not be fully reflected in their present book value. In the post-pandemic era, value investing has risen to prominence after 15 years of underperformance due to firmer inflation, higher yields, and strong economic growth. Market experts believe this signals a prolonged period of value dominance. Goldman Sachs Asset Management noted that in the past 15 years, investors have largely preferred growth investing, as it consistently outperformed until 2020. However, considering the potential for frequent style leadership shifts and long-term secular megatrends across different regions, having a balanced mix of both growth and value in strategic portfolios could be beneficial.

David Kudla, chief executive officer and chief investment strategist at Mainstay Capital Management, joined Bloomberg TV on July 7, 2023. Kudla noted that growth stocks have performed well in the first half of the year, and despite the recent spike in yields causing some concern, the outlook for the second half remains positive, especially for technology stocks like the “Magnificent Seven.” Microsoft and Apple are doing well, and while valuations for some stocks like Nvidia are high, their earnings performance is crucial. There’s a possibility of a correction for these high-flying stocks, but their long-term growth potential in the technological revolution is strong, making them different from the dot com era, added Kudla. The market leadership is also broadening, with small caps performing better in June and overall breadth in the market expanding.

After being a popular choice in the market during 2022, the value trade is now losing its charm. JPMorgan forecasted on February 27, 2023 that investors might consider going “outright underweight value versus growth” in the upcoming month or two. JPMorgan analyst Mislav Matejka wrote in a note:

“Our core view is that in the second half, market will be moving back to the recession trade, but even if the opposite scenario gains traction, value might not be the best place to be.”

Keeping this market outlook in mind, some of the best growth stocks under $25 include Coupang, Inc. (NYSE:CPNG), ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (NYSE:ZI), and Sunrun Inc. (NASDAQ:RUN).

10. Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 12

Share Price as of July 26: $16.80

P/E Ratio as of July 26: 64.62

Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO) is a telecommunications company that provides cable and mobile services in Latin America and Africa. The company’s offerings include mobile data and voice services, SMS, and mobile financial services like payments, money transfers, international remittances, savings, real-time loans, and micro-insurance. It is one of the best growth stocks to watch. On June 29, Scotiabank analyst Andres Coello maintained an Outperform rating on Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO) but trimmed the price target on the shares from $20.40 to $17.90.

According to Insider Monkey’s first quarter database, 12 hedge funds were bullish on Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO), compared to 10 funds in the prior quarter. Mario Gabelli’s GAMCO Investors is the biggest stakeholder of the company, with 1 million shares worth $19.4 million.

Longleaf Partners Global Fund made the following comment about Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO) in its first quarter 2023 investor letter:

“Millicom International Cellular S.A. (NASDAQ:TIGO) – Latin American wireless and cable company Millicom was also a top contributor in the quarter after being a top detractor in 2021/2022. Millicom returned almost 50% in the quarter amid news of two interested third parties. In January, rumors broke (and were later substantiated) that Apollo Global Management and former SoftBank executive Marcelo Claure were exploring a potential acquisition. Separately, French billionaire Xavier Niel, founder of French broadband Internet provider Iliad, built a 21% ownership stake over the last several months via his investment vehicle Atlas Investissement. As a long-term, large, potentially anchor holder, he took a seat on the Nomination Committee, where Southeastern also has a seat. The Nomination Committee’s primary responsibilities are to identify potential board members, propose the compensation for all directors and present proposals on the election and compensation of the statutory auditor. Niel is asking for multiple board seats as well, highlighting his active interest in the business. Millicom sells for an incredibly low multiple of discretionary cash flow before cable and fiber growth capital expenditure. We believe Millicom offers significant potential upside from today’s still overly discounted price.”

9. CCC Intelligent Solutions Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:CCCS)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 16

Share Price as of July 26: $10.84

“CCC Intelligent Solutions Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:CCCS) is a provider of cloud-based software solutions to the property & casualty insurance industry with a focus on the automotive insurance ecosystem. The company created the Direct Repair Program (DRP) more than 30 years ago, a network connecting auto insurers with collision repair shops. CCC’s large platform helps drive cost savings in the expensive and time-consuming processing workflow for insurance carriers while driving revenue growth for repair shops through lead generation, scheduling, parts availability/throughput, and quality of the repair. As a result of this scale, the company has benefitted from network effects. This, in turn, has contributed to strong customer retention (70% of revenue from customers with >10-year relationship) over time. We believe CCC is an attractive holding in part due to a uniquely narrower range of outcomes with a proven track record for durable growth.”

Ariel Fund made the following comment about ADT Inc. (NYSE:ADT) in its Q1 2023 investor letter:

“Alternatively, several positions weighed on performance. Leading provider of automated security solutions ADT Inc. (NYSE:ADT) underperformed in the period. Although ADT reported solid quarterly earnings results, with revenue and EBITDA ahead of consensus as well as the solar segment returning to profitability, management provided a disappointing financial outlook for 2023. Longer-term, we believe ADT’s industry-leading brand and national presence, coupled with its Google and State Farm strategic partnerships, position the company to be a prime beneficiary of growing demand for smart home technologies, including fully monitored residential security.”

Digital platform penetration into China’s four trillion RMB full truck-load market is still just in the single digits. We see major upside based on the expected rollout of transaction commissions to truckers from the current 6% market penetration and less than 1% take rate, and we expect revenue to grow at 50% CAGR over the next five years.”

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on June 23, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

The AI infrastructure supercycle
The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
A surge in U.S. LNG exports
And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.

Dive into the AI gold rush and watch your portfolio soar alongside the brightest minds of our generation.

This isn’t just about making money – it’s about being part of the future.
