It's a good list to start. Off the top of my head, I don't recall any being overly expensive right now, but since I don't have cash to make any current purchases, I'm not really following what is priced right currently. I understand your reasoning not wanting defense companies, banks, or tobacco companies. There are plenty of companies out there to buy with you skipping these 3 categories. I wouldn't have a set number of companies that you want to buy. I used to say I wouldn't go over 50 different stocks. I'm at 47 stocks and there are more than 3 more that I have my eye on to purchase once the time is right. The last thing you want to do is to pass up on a good stock just because you've already hit your magic number. Or buy a stock that isn't a good fit just because you need to buy one more stock to hit #30.
Happy shopping.
