But think again, is it an accident that they are <a href=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/trading-dictionary\/b\/blue-chip\/\">preferred<\/a> by wealthy investors and rock-solid financial institutions? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone would like a part in businesses they understand and that have a demonstrated record of extreme profitability. The blue chips certainly go\u00a0along with this description. According to generations of investors, blue-chip stocks have brought money for owners. For the one wise enough to hang on them through good times and bad times, inflation and deflation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it is well known. The blue chips stocks are always there. They represent companies that are the core of the global business. The firms with the past, with history. Their products and services are present in nearly every part of our lives. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, why they are almost entirely ignored by smaller, poorer investors? But, at the same time, the blue-chip stocks have been supreme in the investment portfolios of retirees, non-profit foundations. Also in the portfolios of the top 1 percent of the capitalist class. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This puzzle gives the greatest example, a spectacular glance into the problem of investment management.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even more, it requires some discussion of behavioral economics. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blue-chip stocks don&#8217;t belong exclusively to the world of retirees and insurance companies. Here&#8217;s why.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_blue-chip_stocks\"><\/span><b>What are blue-chip stocks?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>First of all, \u00a0the blue-chip stock is a nickname. It describes the common stock of a company that has several quantitative and qualitative characteristics. The term &#8220;blue-chip stock&#8221; originates from the card game, poker. You know that the highest and most valuable playing chip color in poker is blue.<\/p>\n<p>But there is no general agreement on what, precisely, makes up a blue-chip stock. Hence, there are always individual exceptions to one or more rules. Anyway, blue-chip stocks have several common characteristics.<\/p>\n<p>They are not new, they have history and profitability. They have official data of stable earning power over several decades.<br \/>\nAlso, they have long data of continuous dividend payments to stockholders.<\/p>\n<p>They reward shareholders by growing the dividend at a rate equal to or substantially more than the rate of inflation. So, the owner&#8217;s income is increasing at least every twelve months even if the shareholder never buys another share.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Blue-chip_companies\"><\/span><strong>Blue-chip companies <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>They have high returns on capital. Also, <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a solid balance sheet and income statement. Especially when measured by the interest coverage ratio and the geographic and product line diversity of the cash flows.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That kind of company repurchases stock when the share price is attractive relative to owner earnings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are larger than the classic corporation. Measured by both stock market capitalization and enterprise value, they are among the largest concerns in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is difficult to unseat market share from them. Sometimes, it comes in the form of a cost advantage achieved through economies of scale, or a franchise value in the mind of the consumer, or ownership of strategically important assets such as choice oil fields. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That giant companies issue bonds that are considered investment grade with the best of the best being Triple-A rated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are included in the component list of the S&amp;P 500 index, speaking about the USA companies. Many of the blue chips are included in the more selective Dow Jones Industrial Average.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_wealthy_investors_prefer_blue-chip_stocks\"><\/span><b>Why wealthy investors prefer blue-chip stocks<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, one of the reasons wealthy investors prefer blue-chip stocks is because they tend to compound at acceptable rates of return. It is typically between 8% and 12% with dividends reinvested. To say that, holding blue-chip stocks isn&#8217;t smooth by any means. They may drop by 50% or more during the period of several years. But over time, the profits perform their extraordinary power. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Presuming that the shareholder paid a reasonable price, it shows up in the total return of the shareholder.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even when they paid high prices for the &#8221;Nifty Fifty&#8221;, 30 years later, investors beat the stock market indices despite several of the firms on the list going bankrupt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By holding the stock directly, the <a href=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/2018\/09\/dividend-yields\/\">wealthy<\/a> can pass them to their children using something known as the stepped-up basis loophole. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most incredible, traditional benefits available to reward investors is that all of the deferred capital gains taxes that would have been owed are forgiven.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if the investor, your mother or father at the same time, vested $500,000 worth of blue-chip stocks and held on to them. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_the_blue-chip_stocks_offer_a_safer_position_during_economic_disasters\"><\/span><strong>Can the blue-chip stocks offer a safer position during economic disasters?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It isn&#8217;t a pleasant moment, but, just, for example, they died after they had grown in value to $5,000,000. The successor could arrange that estate in a way that the capital gains that would have been owed on the $4,500,000 unrealized gains ($5,000,000 current value &#8211; $500,000 purchase price) are forgiven. \u00a0The successor would have never paid them. Their children will never have to pay them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t you think it&#8217;s better compounding at a lower rate with a holding you can maintain for the decades? Better than trying to flit in and out from position to position, always chasing after a few extra percentage points? Yes, it is.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another reason blue-chip stocks are popular is that they offer a safer position during economic disasters. The less experienced and poorer investors don&#8217;t think about this too much because they&#8217;re almost always trying to get rich too quickly. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are looking for that one thing that will instantly make them rich. It never ends well. Markets can collapse. You will see your holdings drop by substantial amounts no matter what you own.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_Blue-chips_safe_investments\"><\/span><strong>Are Blue-chips safe investments?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let the other people deceive you. One of the reasons blue chips are relatively safe is that dividend-paying stocks tend to fall less in bear markets due to yield support.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, profitable blue chips sometimes benefit over the long-run from economic disasters. They can buy, or drive out, weakened or bankrupt competitors at attractive prices. The blue-chip stock sets the stage for much better results decades down the line whenever there is a market collapse.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a conclusion, wealthy and successful <a href=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/2018\/07\/women-better-at-investing\/\">investors<\/a> tend to love blue-chip stocks because the stability means that the passive income is hardly ever in danger. Especially if there is broad diversification in the portfolio. If we ever get to the point that premier blue-chips are cutting dividends en masse across the board, then we will have much bigger things to worry about than the stock market. We&#8217;re most likely looking at a civilization disaster. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if it comes, who will care!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blue-chip stocks are popular because they can provide a safer position during economic downturns.
