With 2016 coming to a close, the S&P 500 is up 10.7% and is trading at a cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings ratio of 28 times. With that backdrop, it's getting progressively harder to find stocks selling at a bargain price that are actually worth your time as an investor. Most of the ones selling for cheap prices today are cheap for a reason: They make for awful long-term investments.
That isn't the case with all inexpensive stocks, though. Two companies in particular -- Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ:GILD) and American Railcar Industries (NASDAQ:ARII) -- look to be two stocks with the traits you want in a long-term investment. To throw a cherry on top of it, both also pay attractive dividends.
