First Understand this

If you are a beginner and I suggest you invest in Blue chip stocks or large-cap stocks you may disagree with me. You start saying to me that these stocks already achieve their peaks. These stocks are not growing more or these stocks take more time to gain profit.

Large-cap stocks may not maintain the same pace of growth forever but these stocks already achieve their brand level. It doesn’t mean that these stocks do not become profitable in the future or cant give a profitable return in the future.

This type of stock already has a strong face value and strong fundamentals. This stock is the market leader in their sectors.
