Today's Big Idea
Best Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy for the Rest of 2019

With 10-year Treasurys yielding just 1.6%, conservative investors have few options in the stock market today. Proven large-cap stocks with robust business models are a solid choice for investors.

Here are seven of the best blue-chip stocks to buy for the rest of 2019.

1. Target Corp. (ticker: TGT). While the terms “Target” and “robust business model” might not bubble into consciousness simultaneously, perhaps they should. The big-box retailer is coming off a blockbuster second quarter in which online sales jumped 34%, earnings per share advanced 20%, and management raised full-year EPS forecasts.

2. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ). Johnson & Johnson has been considered a reliable blue-chip stock for over a century, and if it weren’t for a stronger dollar, sales would be rising in the mid-single digits internationally right now. JNJ shares offer a 2.9% dividend. – John Divine

  • US News is really good with dart-throwing.
  • Really???
    John, I presume this is an email feed you receive.
    And the additional listing of mostly full load A share funds.
    I treat this as a solicitation from an adviser and that someone is making some money for the advertising of funds.
    Agree with @rforno .
