Nothing matters more: Long runway of sectoral growth, strong balance sheet: 8 large-cap stocks with upside potential of up to 30%

The street is bound to see more volatility in the next few days. At such times, cast your mind back. In each of the last 20 years, some event has happened that appeared so negative as to shake the world. Yet, companies have grown, development has remained on track, and investing principles have endured many situations – including all the rate cycles the US and global markets have been through. If you are a long-term investor, develop the ability to ignore the noise. Focus on the business you either own – or will own after you buy the stock.
