We're currently in the midst of earnings season, one of the four opportunities investors get each year to tap into the inner workings of the stocks they own. Stocks can pop on great news, deflate on unexpected revelations, or shake off ho-hum results as if nothing happened. While the long-term trajectory is what matters most, let's face it: Some stocks have more risks than others. High-flying growth stocks can get punished if they fail to meet their historical growth rates, or if Wall Street holds them to unrealistic short-term expectations. Whatever the reason, waking up to news that one of your investments is down 10%, 20%, or more can be a more volatile experience than you're comfortable with.
If you're looking for steady returns from investments that won't keep you up at night, look no further than these three top stocks. But risk-averse investors don't need to sacrifice gains. If that sounds intriguing to you, then you may want to consider General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE), and Repligen Corporation (NASDAQ: RGEN) for your portfolio.
