Let’s go back to 2015. Some guy had $10000.00 to invest. He put it all into Company Broadcom Inc. (AVGO).

(AVGO) had its ups and downs - and continued to steadily thrive and grow - and along the way, the patient investor began quietly being rewarded.

What made the real difference was dividends being reinvested and not selling the stock during stock splits. Every dividend was used to purchase additional shares. When Company Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) stock split, the investor received additional shares without spending a single additional penny. The magic of compounding work - slowly at first and began to compound impressively.
