When it comes to building a stock portfolio that is well diversified and successful over the long term, one of the keys centers around the foundation of your portfolio.

In today's video, I will go through a 4-ETF portfolio that will provide stability, growth, and dividends. In addition, the holdings in this portfolio will feed off one another and keep you well diversified. One of those ETFs is the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEMKT: SCHD).

Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you’ll want to hear this.
On rare occasions, our expert team of analysts issues a “Double Down” stock recommendation for companies that they think are about to pop. If you’re worried you’ve already missed your chance to invest, now is the best time to buy before it’s too late. And the numbers speak for themselves:
- Nvidia: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2009, you’d have $323,920!*
- Apple: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2008, you’d have $45,851!*
- Netflix: if you invested $1,000 when we doubled down in 2004, you’d have $528,808!*
Right now, we’re issuing “Double Down” alerts for three incredible companies, and there may not be another chance like this anytime soon.
