U.S. equities: A valuation-conscious approach – Kyle Weaver and Becky Baker

With U.S. retail sales numbers out stronger than expected, it's clear that even in light of the tariff overhang, consumers are still spending into the economy. On today's episode, we learn more about where growth stocks may be hiding in plain view across US equity markets. Companies that often grow with long-term structural themes, as well as those that are currently pumping large amounts of free cash flows fit this strategy. Aspects of the A.I. trade fold nicely into the growth outlook, but which areas have the most untapped potential at this stage? Joining the show today to speak about growth opportunities across this market are Fidelity U.S. Growth Opportunities class Portfolio Managers Kyle Weaver and Rebecca Baker.
