Best of the Best?
#1
I've been thinking a lot about quality lately, and thought it would be fun to have us work together to generate a list of the absolute best DG stocks. The top 10, 20, or 30 names that belong on every DG watch list. I know we all have somewhat different criteria and opinions, but let's see how much agreement we can generate.

In my imagination, these are DG stocks with a strong history of dividend growth, strong and reliable earnings, sustainable businesses, etc. Stocks that you could buy and hold for 10 or 20 years with minimal anxiety and oversight. Stocks that you would be comfortable buying if the market was going to close tomorrow for the next 5 years.

And I want to IGNORE current price / valuation. I'm not asking what is the best for purchase today; I'm asking what would you buy if you had limited resources and everything was equally on sale. (Of course you can't really ignore yield, since it is an important way to differentiate. Maybe assume you can buy the shares at a yield that is 20 percent above its average yield for the past 5 or 10 years?)

I'll open the bidding:

JNJ
MCD
KO
PEP
CL
