3 Stocks You Can Keep Forever
The comedian Steven Wright reportedly once quipped: "I intend to live forever. So far, so good." That's kind of how it is for me and a handful of my stock holdings. I intend to hold them forever, or at least for a very long time, and... so far, so good. Here are my caveats: I will probably sell some or all of them when I'm in retirement and need extra income, and I may sell them far sooner, if any of them suddenly seem less promising and less likely to keep growing over the long run.
That said, a bunch of my holdings are ones I envision hanging onto for at least 10 or 20 more years. Here's a look at three of them: Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN), and American Express (NYSE: AXP). Maybe you'll want to buy or hold some of them -- and then hang on for a long time, too.
