These High-Growth Tech Stocks Are Outperforming In A Tough Market
Now, that said, there are still risks for the theme. Most of the stocks in our theme trade at price to sales multiples in double digit levels, and many of the companies remain unprofitable. While these companies have grown revenues at a healthy average rate of about 40% over the last year, at these high valuations there’s little margin for error on the growth front. If growth rates cool or miss expectations even slightly, we could see sizable corrections in the stocks.
Within our theme, Okta stock (NASDAQ:OKTA), an identity, and access management company, has been the weakest performer, declining by about 38% year-to-date. On the other side, Palo Alto Networks stock (NASDAQ:PANW), a cybersecurity company best known for its firewalls, has outperformed, rising by about 8% year-to-date.
