I don't know which is more impressive: That the town of Wichita Falls, Texas, has suffered 100-degree heat for 44 days straight, or that the Dow just came within inches of postings nine days of consecutive losses -- its longest losing streak in 33 years. You're probably more interested in the latter. And after stocks' pullback, and a flight-to-safety in Treasuries, the average Dow stock now yields more than 10-year bonds. History is kind to stocks when that situation occurs.
Does that mean markets are about to hit a big upswing? No. But it means a few high-quality stocks now deserve more of your attention. Here are five such candidates: 1. Waste Management (NYSE: WM), 2. Intel (Nasdaq: INTC), 3. Paychex (Nasdaq: PAYX), 4. Kimberly-Clark (NYSE: KMB) and 5. Southern Company (NYSE: SO).
