Dump Dogecoin: These Brand-Name Growth Stocks Will Make Bank
For more than a century, the pathway to achieving financial independence has been to invest in the stock market. While other asset classes do have better years than the market, the historic average annual return of stocks blows other asset classes out of the water.
However, this tried-and-true thought process has been put to the test over the past decade, thanks to the rise of cryptocurrencies. Whereas the benchmark S&P 500 has delivered a total return of 26,500% since the beginning of 1965 (through this past weekend), including dividends, digital-currency Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) gained as much as 27,000% in just a six-month stretch between early November 2020 and early May 2021. In fact, Dogecoin has become heralded as the "people's currency" by retail investors.
