Warren Buffett famously quipped that if you aren't willing to own a stock for 10 years, you shouldn't think about owning it for 10 minutes. That doesn't mean that it's never a good idea to sell a stock or that you shouldn't reassess your holdings in light of new information. But that piece of investing wisdom from the Oracle of Omaha emphasizes the importance of focusing on high-quality companies with characteristics that will allow them to thrive over the long term.
Strength in content and the ability to distribute it directly to consumers are two advantages that I think will help well-positioned companies deliver market-beating returns over the next decade. AT&T (NYSE:T), Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ:TTWO), and Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) all fit that mold and constitute a substantial percentage of my overall holdings, and I think each one stands out as a worthy buy for long-term investors.
