Complete the following sentence with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in bracket.
Stock prices show both a company's current earnings and its expected（ ）in earnings. (grow)
【正确答案】：GROWTH
【题目解析】：
本题考查常见动词的名词形式。
a company's current earnings是名词短语，且空缺处前为its，由both和and可知，谓语动词show后面为两个并列名词短语，空缺处应填名词，grow是动词意为“成长、增长”，其名词形式是growth，符合题意。
句意：股票价格既显示了公司当前的收益，也显示了其预期的收益增长。
