2 Healthcare Stocks You Can Buy and Hold for the Next Decade
If you had bought $1,000 worth of stock in Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) or UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) a decade ago, you would have fared pretty well. Lilly's shares would now be worth $7,195, while that same $1,000 invested in UnitedHealth Group back in 2013 would be worth $10,298 now.
You may have missed out on those opportunities, but the two healthcare companies continue to be solid long-term investments, combining strong, consistent revenue and earnings per share (EPS) growth, along with dependable dividend increases.
Eli Lilly's shares are up more than 22% over the past year and more than 470% over the past decade.
