@ChrisMayLA6 What sectors are oligopolies and is it possible to invest in the companies in them?

If I would compare with sweden, banks are a oligopoly, give generous dividends, and grow at about the same rate as the market as a whole. One year on bank does a bit better by lowering interest rates, and the next year it was another one that lowered them most.

Very comfortable as investments unless you need spectacular gains.

@h4890

I'd say pretty much every major market segment in the UK is likely an oligopoly; if that's your investment strategy you'd be spoilt for choice - do you have a preferred sector?


@ChrisMayLA6 Depends on where it fits in my portfolio. For boring dividend payers I like safe and secure such as food, energy, real estate, banks etc.

Anything good there you think?
