Beat the Nasdaq? This Dividend Stock Has Actually Done It.
Led by some of the best companies on the planet, the Nasdaq Composite has created significant wealth in recent years: A $10,000 investment in the benchmark made 10 years ago would now be worth $41,000 with dividends reinvested. As impressive as this wealth creation has been, there are plenty of individual stocks that have trounced the Nasdaq. Turning a $10,000 investment from 10 years ago into $53,000 with dividends reinvested, Visa (NYSE: V) is one such stock with a track record of outperformance.
