3 Monster Stocks I'd Buy First if I Had to Build a Portfolio From Scratch
No matter where you are in your investing journey, building and maintaining a portfolio of individual stocks requires a time commitment. That's especially true if you're just getting started. With so many companies to research (and so many opinions floating around the internet), it's easy to get overwhelmed, and it's even easier to second guess your decisions.
Before I share my own opinion, let me offer this piece of advice: Invest with a long-term mindset. Build a diversified portfolio of stocks that you think will perform well over the next decade (or longer). Don't build your investment theses around short-term catalysts, and don't buy into ideas that promise to make you rich overnight.
With that in mind, here are the first three stocks I would buy if I were starting from scratch today.
