What stock should I buy if I want to keep it for a long period of time? Put IBM on your watch list. Not only are they big on big computer systems, but they have and R&D pipeline to die for. They've got some faster computing coming (in a consortium with Sony and Toshiba) and are one of the big players in nanotechnology, indeed a lot of the early pioneering work was done by them. Also check out C (Citicorp). They are one of the consistently high profit companies and pay pretty fair dividends. I read where some rich bigshots abroad have piles stashed in it because it is stable and profitable and very, very consistent--a sort of invest and forget it thing. AGL -blue chip low risk. coca cola, disney, home depot, lowes, mcdonalds. any of americas staple goods. chevron, exxon, and gas stock would be good too. anything that has to do with hydrogen powered cars. Long term slow growth stocks like coca-cola, at&t, etc. . . Do NOT invest in hydrogen speculation. Too risky, leave that for those who can afford the risk. Hydrogen is not the future. . . You can freeze ANY kind of stock for two to three months |
