Intel Takes Lead On Dow Top-Stock List
We can use our data to track individual stocks, industries, sectors, and indices. For today's bulletin, we present key metrics for the top picks in the Dow Jones Industrials. The companies listed below represent the top stocks within the index. They are presented below according to their one-month forecast gain.
We have very little turnover this time for our Dow top-ten list. Our only newcomer is IBM, which has replaced GE. Since the last time we presented the top Dow picks, Intel has moved up to become the overall top pick while Verizon maintains the second spot and Traveler's has declined to third. Johnson and Johnson and United Health Group have also improved while Cisco, McDonald's, Home Depot, and Pfizer have declined a few positions. Be advised that none of these stocks are currently rated higher than BUY--there are no STRONG BUY picks in this edition of our DOW top-ten.
