2 Growth Stocks Worth Buying Through the Volatility and Holding for a Lifetime

The Motley Fool highlights Amazon (AMZN.OQ) and Airbnb (ABNB.OQ) as long-term growth buys amid recent market volatility. Amazon’s heavy $200 billion investment plan this year, plus AI-driven demand for AWS (24% YoY revenue growth in Q4) and its Globalstar acquisition to expand Amazon Leo, underpin upside despite near-term share-price swings; the stock trades at ~32x this year’s earnings with analysts forecasting ~19% annual earnings growth. Airbnb’s expanding supply and services, 12% Q4 revenue growth and 16% gross-bookings growth, plus $3.8 billion of 2025 buybacks and $2.5 billion net income on $12.2 billion revenue in 2025, support accelerated growth expectations (revenue +14–16% YoY projected for 2026). Overall tone is bullish: the piece frames temporary volatility as buying opportunities for investors focused on fundamentals and compounding.
