I don't know, buying and holding the right mix of things still seems like a viable strategy to me. I really wonder if all of these people consider dividends also?
Buy and hold potential winners:
Walmart
Mcdonalds
Apple
P&G
Altria
J&J
(insert random oil company here)
...
I could make a huge list of good solid companies paying 4%, 5% or more in dividends. If they all go bankrupt at once it will not matter one bit if you have all of your cash in them or under your matress, because only guns and canned food will matter then.
