Written by Amy Legate-Wolfe at The Motley Fool Canada
When we look at growth stocks, we might think that these are short-term investments — ones that we’re going to hold for a year or two and then sell for the growth we achieved.
But that doesn’t have to be the case. In fact, there are several growth stocks on the TSX today that investors may want to consider. Ones that should continue to climb in share price based on future performance, market demand, and earnings. So, let’s get into three long-term growth stocks investors will want to consider on the TSX right now.
Cameco stock

Historically, Cameco has been a stable player in the uranium market, benefiting from its large-scale production capabilities and long-term contracts. The company’s stock has seen significant appreciation, especially during periods of heightened demand for uranium, driven by the global shift towards clean energy.
In the last three quarters, Cameco has shown strong earnings momentum. The company’s revenue has increased substantially due to rising uranium prices and increased demand for nuclear energy.
