About that ten year time frame. I would've said yes, but this last decade may have been the "lost decade" for some stocks of good and excellent companies. I was looking at KMB and PG to say a mistake was not buying 50, 40, 30, 20 or 10 years ago and just holding on. Except in looking, I saw that the last ten years were actually bad (for the stock price) for both KMB and PG. The two stocks went nowhere essentially. (Although of course dividend reinvestment gave profits, and just being in a "going nowhere" stock would be better than being in a losing stock.) Notice last ten years here compared to previous decades: finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com
