President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion fiscal stimulus package and the Federal Reserve’s decision to keep interest rates near historic lows through 2023 might eventually lead to a strong comeback for the US economy. As a result, growth stocks are expected to witness further upside going forward.

While some analysts expect the economic recovery to cause a rotation away from growth stocks to undervalued investment options, the rally of some growth stocks may not reverse anytime soon.

Growth stocks have dominated the market’s skyrocketing rally over the past year. The SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 Growth ETF (SPYG), which can be seen as a benchmark for the performance of growth stocks, has gained 25.9% over the past year compared to the SPDR S&P 500 Trust ETF’s (SPY) 16.1% return. Even if the market rotation leads to lower returns for growth stocks this year, many are expected to outperform the market.
