1 Mind-Boggling Fact About Microsoft's Stock That Will Make You Think Twice About the Importance of Valuations
If you buy and hold a quality stock for the long term, you expect to earn a good return. But often, I see investors dismiss valuations because the argument is that everything will sort itself out in the long run -- and that can be a dangerous assumption.
If you buy a stock at a high valuation, it can be difficult to earn a good return. And in some cases, you could even face the risk of a sell-off due to that heightened valuation.
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is a great example of this, because it might surprise you to learn that holding the stock for more than 20 years has actually been a worse move than owning it over a much shorter time frame.
