Cramer’s Top Stock Picks For Long-Term Investment in 2010 (AMZN, GOOG, AAPL, BP, DIS, F, HON, M, MCD, PEP)
Some of the stocks that are sure to give impressive return on investment in the long term are:
Cramer has suggested Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), as he believes that it will see accelerated earnings growth in 2010, while the current earnings expectations are extremely low.
Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) has rightfully earned Cramer’s recommendation. With increasing number of advertising dollars flowing in the Internet, GOOG is a long-term growth story.
Jim Cramer also believes that Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) shares are the best way to play the revolution in the mobile Internet/smartphone.
According to Cramer, any long-term portfolio will be incomplete without BP (NYSE: BP). BP has presence across various geographies and an above-average production growth. Moreover, the company’s balance sheet is one of the strongest in the industry.
Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) has good fundamentals that are getting better and a diversified media business.
Cramer recommends owning the preferred stock of Ford (NYSE: F). In the Mad Money show on CNBC, F’s CEO, Alan Mulally, announced that Ford is going to become the world’s most profitable auto company.
With the company’s focus on providing energy efficient infrastructure in the US market, Honeywell International (NYSE: HON) is well set to generate high profits, based on comments from Cramer.
Cramer’s recommendation for Macy’s (NYSE: M) comes after thorough research. The company’s current CEO has transformed and put a so-so retailer back on the radar.
The image of McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) has gone through a sea change ever since it has introduced several healthy offerings on its menu. Cramer considers MCD’s stock as the one preserved for ages, since it is a company that is blessed with impressive overseas business that benefits from the weak US dollar. MCD’s generous dividend is the icing on the cake.
Cramer also says that investors should include the stock of a food-and-beverage company in their portfolio. A defensive name in this industry can help you sail through bad times. In this industry, Cramer considers Pepsico (NYSE: PEP) as one of the best.
