Warren Buffett made the buy-and-hold strategy famous in investing. And while some investors in today's fast-moving markets believe the technique is outdated and no longer useful, the data tells another story. The investment company run by Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A, BRK.B), still acquires stocks using a long-term philosophy to buy and hold stocks.
There's no indication that the strategy has stopped working: Berkshire's stock price has soared 131 percent in the last 10 years, doubling the 65 percent return of the Standard & Poor's 500 index.
It's not easy, but if you follow the following nine steps you can buy and hold stocks, too.
