Here are three interesting articles on the top stock picks for 2009. Use these lists with caution as stock picking websites can be just as wrong as they are right.
Smart Money Top Stocks for 2009 - Stocks that I like on this list are Duke Energy(DUK), Microsoft(MSFT), Johnson & Johnson(JNJ), General Electric(GE). None of these stocks are high growers but are best of breed dividend paying stocks.
Motley Fool Best Stocks for 2009 - Exxon Mobil(XOM) and Costco(COST) are the stocks that I like on this list.
Forbes 17 stocks for 2009 - Not a fan of any of these companies one way or another but the column is worth reading.
I currently own shares of GE, Costco and Microsoft.
Great info
