Louis Navellier in his book gives a formula for beating the market using growth investing. There are many flavors of growth investing and this book presents one of the approach to selecting growth stocks for investing purpose.

At the heart of the Navellier system are eight variables he has found useful in selecting growth stocks. They are:

2. Earnings surprises
3. Sales Growth
4. Profit Margin Expansion
5. Free cash flow
6. Earnings Growth

Growth and value form the two spectrum along which most strategies are based.
