TIAA-CREF’s Top Three Large Cap Growth Stocks

Value has outperformed growth thus far in 2016, but don't expect that lead to last, especially for stocks like Celgene (CELG) - Get Report , Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH) - Get Report and Intuit (INTU) - Get Report , said Susan Hirsch, portfolio manager for the TIAA-CREF Large-Cap Growth Fund (TIRTX) - Get Report . 'Last year we were one of the few winners so I think it was inevitable that this would be a year of correction, so I think it will be a short term phenomenon,' said Hirsch. 'We are living in a world of moderate growth, and companies that can grow revenue and earnings at a 15% to 20% clip will be sought after on a long term basis.' The TIAA-CREF Large-Cap Growth Fund is down 5% thus far in 2016, according to fund-tracker Morningstar.
