As a long-term investor, I'm seeking stocks that grow over the long-term. My optimum case by selecting a stock is that the company is acting within a positive business environment and could grow sales over a decade by about 100%.
There are a lot of companies out there that have doubled or more-than-doubled sales and net income within the past 10 years.
Today I like to show you 16 growth stocks with a good growth history that pay solid dividends and have no or nearly no debt. In addition, analysts predict a 5%+ EPS growth for the next five years.
I love stocks with financial flexibility because those stocks have one less problem and can focus themselves more on business development.
These are my 5 top picks from the list…
