Why Investors Should Own Businesses That Can Win Under Any Administration
Key PointsThe Democrats just won in a landslide, but it was just two years ago that the Republicans pulled off a similarly shocking win.
Investors should focus on businesses that can thrive under any political administration, as the U.S. political landscape can shift rapidly due to frequent elections. The article highlights three companies that fit this criterion: Procter & Gamble, Federal Realty Investment Trust, and NextEra Energy. Procter & Gamble, a consumer staples company, offers essential products and has consistently increased its dividend over the years.
Federal Realty, a Dividend King real estate investment trust, owns prime strip-mall and mixed-use properties with a focus on serving tenants and their customers. Lastly, NextEra Energy, a utility company, has a strong dividend history and operates in both regulated and unregulated sectors, making it resilient to political changes.
These businesses demonstrate the importance of owning companies that can succeed irrespective of the political cycle.
