buyupside.com Core Stock Portfolio
The buyupside.com core stock portfolio is a diversified group
of 37 dividend-paying stocks and two exchange traded funds (ETFs). The
portfolio is designed for the long-term, buy-and-hold investor who will
reinvest dividends.
All the stocks are well-known companies with safe and, in many instances,
increasing dividends. And all the stocks have long-term upside price charts.
Most industries in the portfolio are represented by at least two similar
stocks.
The two ETFs are included to have an exposure to technology and Chinese
stocks, both of which are volatile but have the promise of long-term growth.
If you decide to buy any of these stocks, remember to buy on the upside,
do not pay too much, and do not buy on the downside. Check the price chart
of the stock before you buy.
