Should I Trust an Article Such as “What Are The Best 10 Stocks For The Next 10 Years?”

It can be useful to at least give some deep thought to the picks that appear in such articles.

There is some investment wisdom in reading and taking action on the advice of such articles, since they point you in the direction of the industries which are poised to grow in the foreseeable future.

Unlike short-term stock picks, these articles are concerned with growth that will go beyond the short term uptrend that will undoubtedly follow the appearance of a ticker symbol in such a list.

In the short term, you’re probably buying high if you pick up one of the stocks on the list, but in the long term that isn’t going to matter if it lives up to its growth potential.

You may not necessarily need to buy the same stocks they’ve recommended: taking into account the reasons behind their appearance in the article might lead you to very good investments.
