3 Stocks I Will Hold Forever
Nothing lasts forever. Towers crumble, empires fall, and the best businesses in the world will eventually go belly up. The Dow Jones Industrial Average index held 20 names 100 years ago. None of those companies sits on the expanded 30-ticker Dow Jones scorecard today. Zero. None at all.
So when I say that I'll hold the following three stocks forever, please understand that I mean "forever for all practical purposes." Eternity is much too long of an investing horizon, even for truly long-term investors whose favorite holding period is "forever."
That being said, it would take a lot to take these three stocks away from me. At the very least, these will probably be the last stocks I sell when the time comes to take money out of my retirement accounts rather than adding to them.
