It's one flaw I see in the plan of 40 years of DGI, then keep them all through your retirement. You'll be adjusting because half your picks will be mediocre before you retire. I wouldn't advise a 20yr old build a position in XOM, T, GE. All of those looked good when I started.
Speaking of which, I'd like to get back into TGT now that it dropped to a nice price, but yeah, I know in 20 years it probably won't be as relevant. Retail is tough, unless you have a specific niche like Home Depot or Sherwin Williams.
You have to add DG to that list
In retail its LOW, HD, SHW, DG, WMT, ULTA, TJX and TGT.
The rest you cant bet on long term or to give you year in and year out results.
And TGT isn't going anywhere. No one will be able to duplicate what they do. Even in 20 years they will still be a around.
KMART we all knew would fail. Sears was the only player back in the 70 and 80's and then came the WalMarts and Targets and Amazon of the world.
Swap WMT with COST and add TSCO and I like your list.
