Should also say I have held most of the 40 odd listed companies in my portfolio for at least a few years. I am not being critical of your CSL decision, it is probably one of the better options out of a group of investment options that are all bad. Cash and bonds have a negative real return, with bonds having the potential for large capital losses if rates move up. Property and listed securities are at record low yields. An expensive, but good quality company like CSL doesn't seem like a silly option. I just think it will take a bit of magic to double in 3 years - though I could be wrong
