If I Could Only Own 5 Stocks, Here's What I'd Buy

Here are the stocks I'm most confident will be worth a lot more in 20 years than today.

By Matt Frankel, CFP – Jan 28, 2023 at 7:22AM EST

I own 48 stocks in my portfolio, but not all of them are the same. Specifically, there are some that have a lot of growth potential but also have quite a bit of risk. These five stocks are my favorite combinations of risk and reward in the entire stock market.
