Buy and Hold
Buy and hold is a long-term investment strategy where investors purchase stocks or other assets with the intention of holding them for an extended period, typically many years or even decades. The strategy focuses on acquiring shares of fundamentally strong businesses that are expected to grow over time. By holding onto these investments, investors aim to ride out market volatility and benefit from long-term growth, rather than reacting to short-term market fluctuations. This approach is often used by those who believe in the enduring value and potential of their investments, prioritizing growth over quick gains.
