Why not stocks that can be held 'forever' ! ??
My small holding has Asian Paints, Reliance, Infosys, Tisco, Page Industires and Hawkins and TCS(from IPO)! All held since eternity
! Never calculated the returns but I am sure its multiple times and not just percentage with regular Dividends and quiet a few bonuses and rights etc.
Added : 2011 : Symphony, 2012: bajaj Corp and Cera ceramic and on advise of a member here added in 2013 : Repco and HDFC Bank and gruh !
I plan to leave the stocks for my Heirs. Will be sold in my life time only and only when the same are required for some medical emergency !
