As global markets continue to navigate political developments and economic shifts, U.S. stocks have been buoyed by optimism surrounding trade policies and advancements in artificial intelligence, with major indices reaching new highs. In this environment, growth stocks have outpaced their value counterparts, capturing the attention of investors looking for robust opportunities.
