My Best Stocks to Buy and Hold Right Now
The stock market can be quite volatile over short periods of time, especially if you invest in growth stocks. In fact, the S&P 500 has generated a negative return in one out of every three years since 1928. In other words, even a highly diversified index loses money 33% of the time if you limit your investment time horizon to one year.
However, if you zoom out, the market looks much less volatile. The S&P 500 has produced an annualized return of roughly 10% since 1928, despite losing ground once every three years. That's why a long-term investment strategy is so critical.
With that in mind, here are two growth stocks that will benefit someone whose portfolio operates on a buy-and-hold strategy.
