On the US market, I'd suggest doing a spot of research on these for the long term:
Annheuser-Busch (BUD)
Walmart (WMT)
reason for these two is I spotted an article a couple of months back on Fool.co.uk (the UK version of Fool.com) that Warren Buffett has bought into these.
http://www.fool.co.uk/news/Comment/2006/c060404d.htm
When I checked my US watchlist (set up for helping my online friends in the US invest, since I'm more into it than they are), the Annheuser-Busch shares had gone cheaper (about $45), so.... could be worth a shot.
Also to keep an eye on:
Union Pacific (UNP)
Canadian Pacific (CP.)
Toyota (TM.)
Honda (HMC)
Could be worth a gamble:
Cadbury-Scweppes PLC
NYSE: CSG
London: CBRY (on yahoo = CBRY.L)
They own the rights to the DR.PEPPER brand + Canada Dry ginger ale. Also a leading manufacturer of Chocolate bars in the UK...... made news headlines last week about a salmonella food poisoning scare on one of their production lines, 1million chocolate bars withdrawn as a precaution..... I guess this could almost certainly cause the shares to drop a little, making it a potentially good time to pounce.

If you mean by "stock" to be paper shares of a corporation, a good one and the best that you could manage would be that which sales movement you can easily monitor, and the organizational dynamics (of the corporation it represents) you could be truthfully informed of.
Other than those mentioned, you may decide in favor of those corporations who offer products or services the majority of the population and the whole world wants. But watch out for the big and old companies - they may have popular names but may have a rotten organization running on depleted assets.
No one could really give a good lasting advice here; nothing is permanent except change. And change that is which you are speculating on. Personally, I would rather invest on the company that operates in my neighborhood. That, I could watch everything.

My own opinion is that natural resource related stocks will do well over the next several years. I also agree with the likes of Buffet, Soros and Rogers that the dollar will probably take a dive over this time frame. Resources such as gold, copper, natural gas, and oil will be the place to be. Again- this is only my opinion.

I subscribe to IBD and Streets.com. Mad money made me buy and loose in some stocks like COLM and BBBY. Now I am holding oil stocks like NHY , DRQ and tech stocks like MANT and clothing stores ZUMZ. It is like a crazy game to play and may need to hold long term. There are many good stocks I believe and morningstar also give me news on good levels to buy some good stocks. You will need a lot of cash to invest for long term. Short term speculating needs more info and guts to go in and out.

I don't think that Yahoo Answers is considered appropriate Due Diligence for researching your investment decisions.
