PREFACE
In an aging bull market with stretched valuations there is one antidote to a market pull back. That antidote is growth.
STORY
The market has for a while now placed an enormous premium on growth and an equally, if not harsher, punishment on missed growth. Let's look at the technology sector and see which firms are growing revenue the fastest in the last year.

Let's start with tech firms that have market caps above $50 billion and we will rank them on a scatter plot by one-year revenue growth percent.

It should come as no surprise that the fastest growing mega cap technology company is Facebook. What may indeed surprise us is that BIDU and BABA, China's two darlings, show the second and third largest revenue growth year-over-year, respectively. Finally, surprise number three comes from Apple -- yes, Apple is the fourth fastest growing mega cap technology firm.
Rounding out the top eight we see CRM, NFLX, AMZN and GOOGL. All eight of these companies have premium research reports covering them in detail in CML Pro.
But of course, there's an entire population of technology companies with smaller market caps. Let's look at market caps between $10 billion and $25 billion, below.

NTES tops the chart, and brace yourself now, the most hated stock in the world, Twitter, is growing faster than all but one other technology company in this peer group. Remember, there is a difference between user growth, which Twitter lacks, and revenue growth, which Twitter has a lot of.
Let us also not forget that Twitter just announced it will open up its advertising (revenue) engine to its 500 million monthly non-logged users (compared to its 320 million logged in users). The full research report on Twitter's surprise announcement is also available in CML Pro.

Peeking down the list a bit further, we see our number one cyber security stock pick, PANW (full report in CML Pro) and one of Apple's heaviest suppliers, SWKS.
WHY THIS MATTERS
The top analysts, asset managers and hedge fund managers are keenly aware of the data that will move markets. They actually create their own price to sales (valuations) models. If we're not using this data, then we're trading against people that simply have more information then we do. That is a wealth losing strategy.
Data like this, until now, has been kept away from retail investors, especially in a format that's so easy and so fast to digest. The information asymmetry that exists between pros and non-pros has transferred massive wealth to the top 1% from the rest of us. That information asymmetry is no longer acceptable to us.
