3 Unstoppable Growth Stocks to Buy on Any Dip—Future-Proof Picks for 2025
Market tanks? These stocks laugh at volatility.
1. The AI Juggernaut
Forget 'buy the rumor'—this one sells the news, then reinvents it. Dominates cloud, chips, and the existential angst of legacy tech.
2. The Payments Disruptor
Visa/Mastercard’s worst nightmare. Grows faster than fintech bros burn VC cash. (Yes, even after 120% YTD gains.)
3. The Healthcare Moonshot
CRISPR meets SaaS—treats diseases Wall Street analysts can’t pronounce. Shorts keep getting liquidated.
Bottom Line
Would you bet against the companies building the next decade? Didn’t think so—unless you’re still hoarding railroad bonds.

1. Uber
You know a company has made it big when its name effectively turns into a verb, such as when a person says they'll "Uber" to somewhere, to indicate they are going to use a ride-hailing service. But as prevalent as Uber's services are in North America, there's still much more growth potentially available in international markets, including in Argentina, Italy, South Korea, and other countries where the company is focused on growing its business.
And Uber's growth opportunities extend beyond just ride-hailing services. Last year, there were rumblings that it was looking at possibly acquiring travel booking company. While nothing came of that, I do believe the company's potential is massive. For example, it has partnered with Thames Clippers to run a river bus service in London, which is not only convenient but offers scenic views. In the future, I believe Uber will become a significant travel company, offering its customers many different modes of transportation.
Uber's business has grown from more than $17 billion in sales in 2021 to $44 billion this past year. It's a growth beast, and although it's a great buy today, it's a bit pricey, trading at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of 29 (based on analyst estimates). It's a solid long-term buy, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it if it got back down to around its 52-week low.
2. Alphabet
Alphabet is a phenomenal company, and its stock is probably the most undervalued of the three on this list. It trades at a forward P/E of only 21, which is below theaverage of 24. But there's an element of risk and uncertainty with the business, pertaining to whether it will be broken up due to antitrust issues, and how competitive it will be with respect to artificial intelligence (AI).
Google Search and YouTube are terrific assets, and I see tremendous potential in its AI chatbot, Gemini, being able to integrate with them and add significant value for users in the future. I'm also encouraged by the company's recent quarterly results, which don't seem to imply that other chatbots are hurting its Core business as many investors and analysts feared they might; Google's advertising business generated 10% revenue growth last quarter (which ended on June 30). And Alphabet's overall sales rose by 14% to over $96 billion.
Alphabet's stock is only up 6% this year, and with many question marks surrounding the tech company's future, I know there's a potential for its value to drop in the NEAR future. And if that happens, it could be an excellent time to buy the stock at a cheaper price point.
3. Amazon
Another big tech stock that has produced lackluster gains this year is Amazon -- it's up just 1% as of Monday's close. However, it's the most expensive of the three, as it trades at 34 times its estimated future earnings. But that's still a smaller premium than what it has averaged in the past. A sharp decline in value would make it an even better buy.
Amazon's marketplace has been the go-to option for many shoppers over the years. And its Prime membership might be one of the best value options, packing in many benefits, including free shipping, video streaming, and music. The value proposition is incredible, so it's little wonder that the company has more than 240 million Prime subscribers all over the globe.
This is an unstoppable business to invest in, with Amazon reporting $670 billion in revenue over its past four quarters, and profits totaling $71 billion. It's hard to go wrong with buying the stock at any time, but if there's a downturn in the markets, it could make for one heck of a bargain buy.
