The best stocks for my baby’s account


So, I recently opened a custodial brokerage account for my baby. I have full control over the account until the year 2042, at which point it automatically goes into her hands. My strategy is to hold on to whatever I buy for her, and it’ll be her decision to continue holding or sell when she gains control of the account.

So what stocks should I buy for her now that will do well for her over the next two decades?

And because I know it’ll get asked: I’ve got a separate 529 for her, and she has plenty of index funds (any money she’s gotten as a gift goes into index funds). This account is just something I’ll deposit some extra money in now and again, and I’ll use it to teach her about investing when she’s old enough for that.
