Top 10 Growth Stocks To Own Right Now

Seagate (NASDAQ:STX) makes most of its money from selling hard disk drives. These are computer storage drives that are popular for consumer and data center applications where cost-per-gigabyte (a gigabyte is a unit of computer storage) is more important than speed.�

Despite the fact that hard disk drives are being displaced in personal computers by faster storage drives based on NAND flash memory technology, Seagate's hard disk drive is still healthy. Last quarter, Seagate's hard disk drive business generated $2.59 billion in revenue, a figure that was up 6.7% year over year and represented more than 92% of its revenue during the quarter.

"The growth in hyperscale and cloud storage deployments continues to represent an important opportunity for Seagate, and we are confident in our nearline hard disk drive portfolio designed to serve these environments," Seagate CFO David Morton said on the company's most recent earnings call.

  In the healthcare world, one of those has to be the impressive quarterly report from Intuitive Surgical�(NASDAQ:ISRG). The company increased its revenue by 25%, and accelerated its sales of the da Vinci robotic surgical systems that made it famous. But it's not just the expensive hardware that is allowing it to prosper -- it's that every machine needs a steady supply of the disposable instruments and accessories used during its procedures. The Fools consider the recent numbers, the outlook, and the investment thesis for Intuitive Surgical stock. But in the, say, anti-healthcare space, cigarette slinger�Philip Morris International�(NYSE:PM) took a big hit as demand slackened in major foreign markets.
