10 ‘Buy-and-Hold’ Stocks to Own Forever
Investing to “buy and hold” is trickier than it looks. The increasing pace of technological change means even the most successful, dominant companies have to continually adapt to keep up. Industries like energy, real estate and even consumer products are facing potentially significant long-term changes going forward. In any era, amassing a collection of retirement stocks simply by buying the best companies and holding them for years can be a risky endeavor.

8 Long-Term Investments to Give Your Grandchildren
Sensible investors years ago could have chosen market leaders like Polaroid, General Motors (NYSE:GM), Sears (NASDAQ:SHLD), and myriad other ‘safe’, seemingly dominant stocks that would go on to stumble badly — or even go bankrupt. It’s far from guaranteed, however, that even torrid growth will produce much in the way of long-term returns relative to the stocks’ current prices.

Bankers Want to Do What Bankers Do
Bank of America.If you work at a bank, and you meet with a client and like the cut of his jib and decide to lend him $300 million, and the client vanishes into thin air and the bank writes off the $300 million, are you in trouble? Were you not supposed to have done that? Obviously the bank would rather have the $300 million than not; lending $300 million and getting it back is better than lending $300 million and not getting it back.

Why Big Bank Stocks Are Ready To Rebound
Bank stocks have had a rough 2018 so far, but Oppenheimer is expecting strong third quarter earnings reports to spark an upsurge in their share prices, Barron's reports. Banks’ earnings fundamentals are "more solid than any time in the 33 years we have been covering the space, but the perception that the earnings power of these companies is fragile persists," writes Chris Kotowski, senior analyst for large cap banks and brokerage firms at Oppenheimer, as quoted by Barron's. He adds that capital levels are high and loan delinquencies are low, on "altogether better planes than they have ever been before." Another positive is good expense control, with bank expenses up only about 2%, Barron's adds. The KBW Nasdaq Bank Index is trailing the S&P 500 Index (SPX) by a wide margin year-to-date, as are 5 of the 6 largest U.S. banks, Bank of America Corp. ( BAC), Citigroup Inc. ( C), Goldman Sachs Group Inc. ( GS), Morgan Stanley ( MS) and Wells Fargo & Co. ( WFC).

‘Great Bull Market’ Now Dead: BofA
In a recent note, Bank of America Merrill Lynch Chief Investment Strategist Michael Hartnett analyzed the state of the markets 10 years following financial crisis. Hartnett cited the unique deflationary nature of the bull market, wherein while stocks have risen to record highs, brokerage commissions have fallen to $30 billion from $80 billion since 2000, as outlined by Business Insider. Deflationary assets such as government bonds, US investment-grade bonds, the S&P 500, US consumer discretionary equities, growth stocks and US high-yield credit have outperformed the inflationary group including assets like commodities, Treasury inflation protected securities, developed-market stocks (excluding the US and Canada), US banks, value stocks and cash.
