Companies that consistently increase their sales, margins, or returns on capital are usually rewarded with the best returns, and those that can do all three for years on end are almost always the legendary stocks that return 100 times your money.

It’s clear there’s a strong connection between sustained earnings growth and hall-of-fame returns. Taking that into account, here are three market-beating stocks with room for further growth.

Robinhood (HOOD)

Five-Year Return: +170%

With a mission to democratize finance, Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) is an online consumer finance platform known for its commission-free stock and crypto trading.

Why Will HOOD Beat the Market?

1. Switching costs of its platform were on full display over the last two years as it not only grew engagement but also increased the average revenue per user by 91.2% annually
2. Performance over the past three years was turbocharged by share buybacks, which enabled its earnings per share to grow faster than its revenue
3. Impressive free cash flow profitability enables the company to fund new investments or reward investors with share buybacks/dividends

At $123.85 per share, Robinhood trades at 34.8x forward EV/EBITDA. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.
