If you buy stocks and forget about them, you will do fine. High-quality stocks will always be in fashion. You should buy and hold and forget about stocks. In fact, stocks will be up no matter what because, long-term, all stocks go up, but especially the good ones.
Stocks are always good buys longer-term.
Same with mutual funds. There it is. That's what many people want to hear. They want to hear that long-term stuff so bad they can taste it. The gurus hide behind long-term rhetoric.
