...' Dean Turner, Barclays Wealth "The key to picking stocks for the next 10 years is to look at companies that have a strong competitive position over their rivals, including strong brands, leading market positions and growing markets. In addition, a good dividend yield and potential for growth are key selection criteria. With this in mind, I would pick natural monopolies such as oil or telecom companies, including BP, Royal Dutch Shell and Vodafone. In addition, global leaders such as BAT in tobacco, Diageo in the drinks industry or Tesco in retailing are likely to continue dominating their respective industries. Nevertheless, the caveat is that competitive advantages tend to erode over time, so picking stocks so far in the future is inherently risky."
