Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is a household name that continues to earn consistent returns. If you look at the returns on the chart above, you can see that for every 5 years of holding time, (JNJ) stock value has went up. This may seem like a natural occurrence, but this is not the case for many good companies featured in the Stock Performance Guide. Of course the future doesn't always follow the past, but I expect to continue seeing consistent returns from JNJ stock.
