  • A Buy & Hold Forever Dividend Stock Portfolio [View article]
    Good list.

    Back testing would make no sense since these are all companies that did pretty well in the period back tested. A list from 20 years ago might have included Kodak (EK), last year's list would have probably included AIG.

    For back testing, check the XMI index a group of 20 stocks, many on this list. I do not think there has been many changes over time. WalMart and MSFT were not original in 1983.
