Not necessarily stock prices, but exponential growth. Not all stocks grow exponantially.

It's not about the rate of the growth. It reflects better percentage movement (that's what's important). Nominal movements in price are meaningless. Really. Thing about it. A 100% growth at $10 is the same as 100% growth at $100 if you want to calculate revenue but it is not reflected as that in a linear scale.
