Honest investors can attest that stock picking is hard. A strong conviction pick can lead to out-performance one year and under-performance the next. Or, vice-versa.
I recently saw a discussion on Twitter among financial professionals based on the following question:
Without Googling the answer, what is the best performing US stock over the last 20 years?
Some of the responses included companies like:
* Microsoft (MSFT)
* UnitedHealth Group (UNH)
* Apple (AAPL)
* Amazon (AMZN)
* Nvidia (NVDA)
* Berkshire Hathaway (BRK'A / BRK'B)
* Walmart (WMT)
* Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), and
* Netflix (NFLX)
I responded with Phillip Morris (PM).
The correct answer: Monster Beverage (MNST). By a lot!
Would you have guessed that one correctly?
