Growth stocks

I want to better understand what the drivers are that move a stock price up or down Specifically I am confused by the performance of growth stocks which have nil revenue generation, do not pay any dividend and/or have a business model that are based on the future commercialisation of a set of products currently under development. These companies appear to be speculative and the market seems to pump these stocks up and then take profits. A typical example might be PRL which is up 6.9% today (26/3). Why would someone or an institutional investor buy this stock
Seems like a lottery to me and keeps driving me back to value based trading (less risky, generally) but as Im 70 years old, Im wanting to have some fun in the market and growth stocks may provide this outlet.

What is your opinion on US fund WCMQ?

As I understand, Peter Switzer recommends this US fund – WCMQ. If WCMQ invests in quality companies around the world, do they still earn and report in US$’s? Does this mean that a falling US dollar will have a negative impact on WCMQ share price/profits? Is WCMQ immured from a falling US dollar in the companies that it invests in that are outside US.
