Any thoughts on any of these stocks? I haven't heard of too many of them.
I agree with them that Alphabet belongs on this list, as does Paypal.

This sounds a lot like the argument for the "Nifty Fifty" blue chips of the early 1970's:

Funny how they've dropped 10 EQ's from just 90 days ago that were the best 60 to own. Question is will it be 40 in Jan or back to 60.

Other than that, it's just a good old fashioned diversified sector & old time research.

I love how they have all 50 in a nice small compact list. I was half expecting a slideshow with one company on each page having to spend 45 minutes going through the whole damn list. Haha

Yep, it's pretty much their conviction list repackaged.

Let's attempt to track a basket of these stocks, say over the next year, 5 years, 10 years, etc. How would this basket perform, vs. the venerable S&P 500? I of course have my own biases and suppositions, but it would be a fascinating experiment, would it not, to see how the experts fare, vs. the proverbial drunk blindfolded monkey throwing darts?!

I can't take any list that calls Tesla a perfect stock seriously. Maybe more like perfect storm.
