Members of the "Magnificent Seven" have struggled in 2025. But growth stocks, a broader group of companies with similar characteristics to these formerly dominant Big Tech names, have still performed quite well.

Its dollar-based net retention rate stood at an impressive 117% in the previous quarter, as measured by the trailing-12-month (TTM) annual recurring revenue (ARR) from its customers. A rate of more than 100% is an indication that Confluent's services have proved to be sticky as existing customers are spending more year over year.

While larger rival Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER) has attracted much of the recent attention from investors in the space, Lyft is now profitable, growing solidly, and innovating across the business, paving the way to future growth.

The group of so-called "Magnificent 7" mega-cap tech giants continue to dominate the mind share of most investors, with these top high-growth companies continuing to see strong inflows as investors look to remain exposed to growth.
