Want to Beat the Average Stock Market Return? Here Are 10 Stocks to Help
The benchmark S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) stock market index has delivered a gain of 67,036% (including dividends) since it was established in 1957. That translates to an average annual return of 10.2%, compounded.
That's more than twice the return investors could earn if they held cash right now, even with interest rates at a 15-year high.
But, historically, investors who purchased specific individual stocks have far outperformed the return of the S&P 500. I'm going to share 10 stocks that have crushed the index since their initial public offering (IPO), and they have the potential to help you beat the market going forward, too.
