In the past decade, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite index have produced total returns, including dividends, of 225% and 323%, respectively. These gains prove that investing in the stock market is a fantastic way of building wealth.
Unsurprisingly, some companies have fared much better. Your mind might immediately go to the dominant " Magnificent Seven " stocks, which is understandable.
But it might shock you to learn that O'Reilly Automotive (NASDAQ: ORLY) , a leading aftermarket auto parts retailer, has seen its shares skyrocket 657% in the past 10 years, turning a $10,000 investment into more than $75,000 today (as of April 17). Should you hop on the bandwagon and buy this winning stock?
