Fresh inflation data and Nvidia’s upcoming earnings have put growth expectations back in the spotlight. Markets are being reminded that when pricing power and demand hold up as rates stay higher, companies with credible expansion plans can pull away from the pack. This article looks at three fast growing, high conviction stocks from our US screener that analysts and management both back, and explains why investors are watching them closely now.
The stocks covered below are just a sample, and the full High Growth High Conviction screen surfaced 49 more companies with equally compelling narratives that are not unpacked in this article. If you want to identify and analyze the highest conviction setups tailored to your own criteria, head straight to the High Growth High Conviction screener.
Oracle (ORCL)
Overview: Oracle provides cloud software applications and infrastructure, with its Fusion Cloud ERP, HCM, SCM and NetSuite suites central to its growth story.
Operations: Oracle generates most of its revenue from Cloud and software at US$62.8b, with smaller contributions from Services at US$5.8b and Hardware at US$3.2b.
Market Cap: US$359.0b
Oracle matters for this High Growth High Conviction screen because its cloud software and infrastructure are directly tied to management’s most ambitious expansion plans.
"For Oracle, winning this business was more than just a client acquisition; it was a powerful endorsement and validation that its Gen2 AI infrastructure could compete head to head with the largest hyperscalers on both performance and cost-effectiveness."
The real test for Oracle is how one unresolved funding and build out pressure eventually feeds through to cloud profitability and growth.
That funding pressure is exactly why reading the full narrative for Oracle can help you see where Oracle’s cloud ambitions might accelerate or stall next.
Nu Holdings (NU)
Overview: Nu Holdings runs a large app based digital bank across Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, centered on fee light cards and everyday accounts that anchor the High Growth High Conviction theme.
Operations: Nu Holdings currently generates about US$8.4b from Banking services, with Brazil contributing US$13.7b of revenue and smaller amounts from Mexico and other markets.
Market Cap: US$56.7b
Nu Holdings matters in this screener because its low friction cards and digital accounts have turned under served Latin American consumers into a fast scaling banking franchise.
"The Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil) has watched Nu's rise with a mixture of admiration and caution. In late 2025, it issued new requirements that will compel Nubank to obtain a full banking license in Brazil by 2026."
The real hinge for Nu Holdings is what happens to its unit economics if a single regulatory shift changes the cost of rapid expansion.
If that licensing pivot is what decides Nu Holdings’ next phase, read the full narrative for Nu Holdings to see how regulation, funding and customer growth could be decoupling.
Figure Technology Solutions (FIGR)
Overview: Figure Technology Solutions runs a blockchain based lending and trading platform that connects technology driven loan origination with capital partners and digital assets.
Operations: Figure Technology Solutions currently generates about US$619 million in revenue entirely from activity in the United States.
Market Cap: US$4.7b
Figure Technology Solutions matters in this High Growth High Conviction screen because its blockchain rails turn loan origination and funding into a single, capital markets style marketplace.
"Although Figure Technology Solutions is capturing growing consumer loan marketplace volume and higher ecosystem fees, the rapid mix shift toward Figure Connect and volume tier discounts for large partners has already pushed the net take rate to 3.6% at the low end of guidance. This could restrain revenue growth even if headline volumes keep rising."
The real question for Figure Technology Solutions is what happens to earnings power if one quiet shift in fee mix persists longer than expected.
If that fee mix keeps shifting, the full narrative for Figure Technology Solutions maps where Figure Technology Solutions’ take rate pressure could still mask an accelerating platform opportunity.
