After all, growth stocks trade based on their anticipated growth and there was no reason to expect a slowdown since cheap money was being injected into the financial system by central banks. These dynamics, though, are changing, and the bull market has started to slow down. As such, growth stock earnings multiples could begin to decline as growth expectations are tempered by the current economy.
