‘Buy-and-hold’ is alive and well, even as the stock market sags

‘Time in the market and compounding make up for bad luck.’


Decades of research showed that the best stock jockeys only delivered about 1% more per year than just passively holding the index, and that most of that extra return was attributable to luck.

How to Tell When a Stock Up 1,000% Could Still Quadruple Your Money

By Keith Fitz-Gerald

Ask yourself three questions if you’re considering an “expensive” stock right now:

1. Is the stock you want to buy tapped into one or more Unstoppable Trends? If yes, then it’s got a trillion-dollar tailwind no matter what the Fed does next, no matter how Wall Street tries to hijack it, and no matter what Washington thinks. If not, pass.

2. Does it make a “must-have” product or a “must-have” service? Genuine “must-have” investments are very simple to define and understand because you need them to survive, and people will spend whatever it takes even under economic conditions that will kill lesser competitors.

3. Is it a disruptor at a time when others cannot understand the disruption? This is particularly important because disruptors – like McDonald’s was when it debuted – almost always have the last laugh.


In closing, the best stocks are almost always expensive because they’re priced for growth. But that doesn’t mean you’ve missed out if you’re late to the party.

In fact, there are any number of companies that we talk all the time that are still worth buying today if you can answer “yes” to the questions I’ve just shared with you.

Do so and odds are you’ll be very happy with your purchase…

…even if the markets fall tomorrow.

Buy & Hold

by Chris Johnson

The market trades in a range about 80% of the time and in a trend about 20% of the time. So, if you think about it, the buy-and-hold investor will watch their investment move sideways eight years of every 10. That's a tragic waste of time and upside in my book.

But here's the thing: Investors who choose to be just a little nimbler, and trade the movements that are made the other 80% of the time, are the ones that can truly "find a bull market" anytime.

In the end, they will always outperform the "buy and hold" crowd and end up with the kind of money that can make a retirement or fulfill a dream.

Doing Nothing is Hard

by Vishal Khandelwal

The idea of buying and holding high-quality businesses over a long period of time is simple. Everyone knows that, and even those who don't practice it, appreciate that this works with most high-quality businesses as history has proven time and again.

But then, it's important to understand that the action of not doing anything over such a long period of time involves hundreds of decisions over months and years that lead to such inaction.

Of course, one way is to buy stocks and forget for 20 years and hope to end up with a fortune. There are quite a few such fairy tales you may have heard of.

But the other side of the picture is that countless people have also ended with duds in their portfolios, or vanished companies, when they realized their father or grandfather had bought some stocks and forgot about them for 20 or more years.
