If I told you that you could purchase shares of McDonald's (NYSE:MCD) at $60, Colgate-Palmolive (NYSE:CL) at $40, Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:KMB) at $70 or Nike (NYSE:NKE) at $30, I think that's something you might be interested in. These were the prices back in 2007 and today shares are exchanging hands materially higher. Naturally you'd have to think about inflation and opportunity cost, but I would contend that these would still be quite solid results.
With that notion in mind, I thought it might be interesting to highlight a few securities with share prices in 2015 that are quite similar to where they were trading 2007, eight years later: Aflac (NYSE:AFL), Franklin Resources (NYSE:BEN), AT&T (NYSE:T), Deere & Co. (NYSE:DE), Exxon (NYSE:XOM), Chevron (NYSE:CVX), Shell (NYSE:RDS.B) and BP (NYSE:BP).
