I was surprised to receive an invitation to attend, as an observer, the WPB (WorldpowerBrokers) annual meeting held in Gotham City. The WPB includes a multitude of high power broker; BigBoys, FatCats, Buffet, Bill Gates, BigDaddy, Soros, major Hedge Fund managers, major bank execs, and influential members from 3rd world countries and China. They were here to select the stocks to be guaranteed to be safe and sound as investments. Here are their selections:
Best biggest stocks
...Wal-Mart (WMT) – Biggest retailer in the world and 36 years of increasing dividends. Wal-Mart is slowing taking over the world and the government does not seem to mind. One thing to remember, WMT is a retailing survivor juggernaut that ruthlessly crushes its competition.
Mar Cap: $159.30 billion
Price: $59.00
Mar Cap: $206.61 billion
...Proctor & Gamble (PG).
Procter & Gamble is the largest consumer packaged goods companies in the world with operations in over 180 countries on six continents. The behemoth business started in 1837, and has been through wars, depressions, and nearly every conceivable economic environment.

Footnote: The WPB decided, ordered and required these companies to raise their stock dividends in 2012.
Disclosure: Own stock in MO, WMT, MCD. Traded options in KO and PG in 2011. Would be happy owning KO and PG. Prefer CVX over XOM. Also, in case you didn't realize it, this is a parody blog.
.....Altria (MO) – aka Marlboro. Having a line of products that are legally addictive has proven to be very profitable for the BigBoy investors, the government, and healthcare/pharmacy company practitioners.

McDonald’s plans to test or soon import from foreign markets for U.S. testing the Pub Burger, the 1955 Burger, large chicken wraps, McBites popcorn chicken, the Cherry Berry Chiller frozen beverage, the Magnum McFlurry and blueberry–banana oatmeal.
