With the recent Fed rate cut, slowly easing rate of inflation, and general optimism for economic growth, U.S. businesses are showing signs of strong growth prospects. Thus, it might be an opportune moment to seek high-growth stocks.

With these economic drivers in mind, investors could look into shares of growth stocks Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. (ESPR), AngioDynamics, Inc. (ANGO), and Fathom Holdings Inc. (FTHM). All three stocks are priced under $10, and Wall Street analysts see substantial upsides in them.

The Federal Reserve cut its key interest rate by a quarter-point this month in response to the steady decline in the once-high inflation. A historic half-point reduction in September preceded this rate cut. The benchmark rate sits around 4.6% right now, down from a four-decade high of 5.3%.

These rate cuts mainly aimed to combat inflation and reduce borrowing costs for consumers and businesses alike. Inflation has since fallen from a 9.1% peak in mid-2022 to a three-and-a-half-year low of 2.4% in September. As inflation eases, the economy gets another chance to start thriving again.

The Fed plans to cut the rates once more this year and around four times in 2025 to bring inflation closer to its 2% target. However, with the economy mostly solid and Wall Street anticipating faster growth, further rate cuts may become less likely.

In this dynamic environment, growth stocks stand out for their above-average revenue growth, with companies frequently reinvesting profits to drive future expansion, making them a compelling choice for long-term investors.

Now, let us dive deep into the fundamentals of three growth stocks.
