Simple, not easy. That may be one of the best ways to describe buy-and-hold investing. Finding great companies at great prices, buying them, and then hunkering down for the long haul is pretty simple. It gets difficult when your emotions start to take control and when you fail to update your thesis when new information arises.
That said, there may not be a better way to build wealth. It's the tactic Warren Buffett relied on to become a billionaire. In fact, he didn't reach the milestone until he turned 56 years old. Investors looking for great companies they can buy and hold for the next decade (or longer) should take a closer look at consumer water technology specialist A.O. Smith (NYSE:AOS), lithium producer Albemarle (NYSE:ALB), and biopharma enabler Repligen (NASDAQ:RGEN).

Cashing in on China's middle classIt's quite possible most investors have never heard of A.O. Smith. That's mostly because it operates primarily in the boring business of water heaters. While most homeowners in the United States only remember they own a water heater when it malfunctions and they need to replace it, many households in China have recently purchased their first water heater ever. That's brought some excitement to the business in recent years.

The stock market finally hit some resistance on Tuesday, giving up ground and breaking a long streak of consecutive advances for most major benchmarks. Market participants got spooked by a rise in interest rates, with 10-year Treasury yields once again climbing above the 3% mark and leading some to predict even steeper advances in the future. With budget deficits ballooning, higher interest expenses on the national debt could have a dramatic impact on the U.S. economy, especially if it lures investors away from high-flying stocks. Yet even amid the bond-driven downturn, some individual companies saw good news lift their shares. Valeant Pharmaceuticals International (NYSE:VRX), Hollysys Automation Technologies (NASDAQ:HOLI), and Ascena Retail Group (NASDAQ:ASNA) were among the best performers on the day. Here's why they did so well.

Hot Warren Buffett Stocks To Own For 2018: JA Solar Holdings, Co., Ltd.(JASO)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By Garrett Baldwin] This morning, President Trump suggested that the United States is considering strong military action in response to recent chemical attacks carried out on civilians by the Syrian government. The president promised to send "nice and new and 'smart'" missiles to Syria and accused the Russian government of partnering with a "Gas Killing Animal who kills his people and enjoys it!" The president's remarks are a significant departure from comments made last week, which suggested that the United States would be pulling out of Syria in the coming months. Trump's threat of war over a recent chemical attack in Syria drove crude oil and gold prices higher. Geopolitical worries often offer a boost to commodity prices due to concerns about supply. Trump's threat comes at a time that markets are already concerned about a significant military conflict in the Middle East between Saudi Arabia and Iran. WTI crude prices added 0.9% to hit $66.10 per barrel. Brent crude pushed to $71.10 per barrel. Gold price topped $1,350 per ounce and are poised for bigger gains. According to Axios, U.S. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan (R-WI) has privately told friends that he will not seek reelection in the fall. The news comes at a perilous time for Republicans, who are expected to lose the House of Representatives and potentially the Senate. Axios was the first to report the news. The story is also notable because Ryan recently achieved his long-time goal of passing tax reform in late 2017.
