PC, I'm no expert on the innards of Walgreens. It's just one of about 18 individual stocks I own. One of my sons worked as a pharmacy tech at CVS and later at Walgreens when he was in college. For awhile he had thought of becoming a pharmacist.
Index funds comprise the core of my stock portfolio; I was a very early investor in the Vanguard Total Stock Market Fund, and an early disciple of Vanguard's John Bogle and indexing. About 12 years ago I bought my kids QQQ, another index fund. QQQ turned out spectacularly.
I virtually never trade my stocks, but just added some IJR, a mid-cap index fund because I worry about declining diversification. Investors simply have too much money in mega-caps like Apple, MSFT and Amazon. Heck, even Buffett has loaded up on Apple via BRK, and lately he's added two S&P 500 index funds, so more Apple!
