Analyst Says Growth Stocks Remain Attractive Versus Value Ahead of Fed Decision
Technical analyst Todd Gordon compares charts for growth and value stocks as investors await a key Federal Reserve rate decision.
Technical analyst Todd Gordon, in a segment aired on CNBC, said growth stocks continue to look more attractive than value stocks even as interest rates rise, according to a report published by CNBC on September 16, 2026.
Gordon's analysis compared chart patterns for growth-oriented and value-oriented equities, examining their technical outlooks ahead of an upcoming Federal Reserve interest rate decision, the report said.
The CNBC segment did not provide extensive detail beyond the chart-based comparison, but framed the discussion around how investors might position themselves in growth versus value stocks as the central bank prepares to announce its next policy move.
The Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions have historically influenced the relative performance of growth stocks, which are often more sensitive to borrowing costs, compared with value stocks, which tend to include companies in more established, cash-generating industries.
CNBC did not specify the exact date or details of the Fed decision referenced in the segment. Further details of Gordon's full technical analysis were not included in the available report.
