Why The Market Pays Up for Growth

Great comment from Jason Cohen.

"The market rewards growth over profit ONLY WHEN the market also believes there's a lot more growth ahead of the company AND when the other mechanics in the company are sound, eg. good gross profit margin and high long term value: CAC. Once a company is large and simple market expansion isn't how it will grow, they're betting on the development of stronger business models. This is the current bet on FB, P & TWTR."

I had always intuited this and so liked when I saw it articulated. Not rocket science, but sometimes stating the obvious is good.
