A large-cap (large market capitalization) stock refers to a company with a market capitalization of over $10 billion USD.
A company’s market capitalization is an essential metric used by investors globally to assess a company’s overall size via the market valuation of its outstanding shares.
Stocks of large-cap companies comprise an approximate 98.5% of the overall equity market in the United States, and are considered to be the “blue chips” of the stock market. Unlike their small-cap and mid-cap counterparts, large-cap stocks tend to be less volatile and offer more robustness during economic downturns and fluctuations.

How to Find Large-Cap Growth Stocks
To start, we focused only on those US stocks that have a (huge) market capitalization exceeding $200 billion, and which continue to display room for potential growth through their fundamental metrics.
On feeding these requirements in the Investing Pro Stock Screener, we were able to narrow down to a short list of matching companies, given how expensive the current market is.
In order to guarantee investment security, we have also included a screener that omits all companies with insufficient cash flows that are unable to cover rising debt in case of an economic turndown.
Investors can find US-based large-cap growth stocks easily using Investing Pro. Here are the steps:
- Click on the Screener tool.
- Select ‘Market Cap’ as a filter parameter on the Screener page, and set the threshold value to $200 billion.
- Add two more filter metrics – this time for Fair Value Upside and Cash Flow/Total Debt, setting their range to desired values. To follow our stock selection metrics, set the Fair Value Upside set for higher than 5%, and the other filter to the over 40% range.
- For U.S.-centric stocks, select ‘United States’ under the ‘Trading Region’ tab drop-down, and make sure to check (select) the ‘Primary Trading Item’ option.
- You can then see the list of all the companies falling in the desired screener filters’ range, arranged in a descending order.
Best Large-Cap Growth Stocks FAQ
Q. What are large-cap growth stocks?
A large-cap stock belongs to a company that has a market capitalization of over $10 billion USD. Thanks to their huge valuation and overall size, large-cap stocks are often considered to be safe investment options. Growth stocks refer to scrips whose shares are projected to grow at a significantly higher rate than the average growth rate of the overall market. From a purely financial standpoint, market capitalization indicates the size and success of a corporation. It is the total value of a company’s outstanding shares multiplied with the current price of each equity share.
Q. Why invest in large-cap growth stocks?
Large-cap stocks are considered to be relatively safe investment options as they belong to companies that have mammoth valuations, and are often quite old companies. These stocks are stable in terms of price fluctuations and have strong fundamentals, which is a beneficial trait during economic downturns. Further, due to the ‘growth’ parameter, large-cap growth stocks have a substantial room for capital appreciation, therefore increasing the overall value of an investor’s portfolio.
Q. How should I evaluate the performance of my large-cap growth investments?
You can do this using InvestingPro. For example, if you want to evaluate the performance of a single holding, say Tesla Inc, you can go to Tesla’s overview page on InvestingPro and look at its average fair value, which has been curated by taking into account a total of 12 different technical investing models. Alternatively, you can also go to the ‘Watchlists’ page on InvestingPro and add all your holdings. Doing so will help you keep a track of all your investments in one place.
