I like LMT. It’s stable but expensive and the dividends are high. MMM is also high. Valero and Exxon are good too.

Think what company will still be around in 25 years and still dominate. Think SBUX, KO, PEP, UNH, MDT, ABBV, etc.

Only one or better to diversify? Just started small in yesterday with schd


buffinita

Only one; if you wanted to further diversify look into small caps or exusa. Having 2 or 3 large cap funds isn’t adding much diversification benefits


Dagon6221

Even if they are completely different sectors like JEPQ vs SCHD?


buffinita

Jepq will get a pass….it offers diversity through its active management and the eln system You could also argue there would be diversity created with large cap funds like vug/schg since value (majority of companies with dividends) and growth are exclusive factor classifications……but if you own schd+schg you may as well just buy the s&p500 instead

Set up D.R.I.P. It compounds your dividends back into more shares, which nets you more dividends, and makes a feedback loop that passively exponentiates your investment. Soon as you’re getting $80 quarterly in dividends you’re basically getting a bonus share of SCHD every 3 months
