3 Stocks To Buy And Hold For The Next 50 Years
The Motley Fool has always been a proponent of long-term investing. Ride the market's ups and downs over the long haul, avoid knee-jerk reactions and attempts to time the market, and you'll likely find yourself much wealthier when it's all said and done. But picking a company built to survive, and hopefully thrive, over the next five decades is incredibly difficult. So here are three intriguing suggestions from Motley Fool contributors: Aptiv (NYSE:APTV), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS). Daniel Miller (Aptiv): Finding a stock you're comfortable with holding over the next five decades is no simple task, because the world will evolve so much over that time frame. However, Aptiv offers investors a safer way to ride the oncoming wave of driverless vehicles. To further explain how Aptiv's business is poised to thrive in the years ahead, let's look at how its revenue is generated. In 2018, 72% came from its signal & power solutions segment, which specializes in engineered components, data, and power distribution for highly automated vehicles. The remaining revenue was generated by its advanced safety & user experience segment, which covers active safety products, infotainment and user experience solutions, mobility services, connectivity, and security.
The words "Land Rover" and "value" aren't often found together, but the LR2 could change that. As noted in our last test of the baby Rover, the LR2 used to be the Freelander, and it wasn't very good. The LR2 steps up considerably from those humble beginnings, creating a small SUV that looks and feels like a legitimate little brother to the bigger Rover utes. Well, let's say that the standard lighting is good enough (it is). 1,050 falls off the window sticker just like that. Can you live without navigation, surround sound, satellite radio, giving the kids the ability to control same and Bluetooth for your phone (hang up and drive already)? 3500 gone. And you've got a very nice base vehicle (hey, the standard stereo is a 320-watt, nine speaker Alpine system with a 6-disc in-dash changer). I'd see if you can get them to make that PDI charge go away. 700 to make sure one of these is ready to sell to a customer.
When you enter a dealership with your FICO scores, the dealer will know you're a more informed consumer and cannot be taken advantage of. Just know that the FICO credit scores auto dealers use are a little different than what we see as consumers. The scores the dealers review are called FICO Auto Industry Option Scores. FICO scores may be higher than your normal FICO scores if you paid all previous auto loans as agreed. Some car dealers have told me that if your FICO scores are higher than the scores the dealer reviews--they may even use your scores to get a better deal. Step 3 is to interview the remaining car dealers on a deeper level. Which credit reporting agency do you use to make a lending decision? What is your minimum credit score requirement to get approved? What credit score is needed to get the best interest rate? Do your lenders prefer offering lease or purchase financing to a bankrupt debtor?
