I uncover a high-quality dividend growth stock that appears to be undervalued each week for Daily Trade Alert, which is a site that focuses on dividend growth investing, stocks, and unique investment opportunities. I’ve been writing for them for years now, and they’re just great over there. Each week, I publish an excerpt of my work, when it’s fresh off the press. That way, you readers are given the opportunity to check it out. The content is totally free. I hope you enjoy!
When I think about becoming a very successful stock investor over the long haul (say, many decades), I imagine what kind of portfolio would most likely result in that kind of outcome.
I keep coming to the same conclusion.
The kind of portfolio that would most likely result in a ton of success over a very long period of time is going to be filled with some of the best businesses in the world.
These businesses should be more or less household names, providing the products and/or services that the world recognizes, demands, and regularly consumes.
A collection of businesses like that almost can’t do anything but lead an investor to massive success.

Jason, About 20 years ago as a 20 something I had a small position in Disney. At the time I decided to sell the few individual stocks I owned and moved to a fund strategy. It made sense at the time, but man I wish I would just forgot about it and hung on. Can’t get em all right I guess. Tom
Tom,
I hear you big time. The more experienced at investing I become, the less likely I am to sell anything. It’s better to just let a great business go to bat for you. 🙂
Cheers.
