depends on what your goal is: long term or short. if long term, stick with companies that have been around for a long time [GE, Microsoft, Disney]. If you are looking for short-term investments for quick cash [this is called "speculation" not "investing"] then pick riskier stocks. Usually newer companies. Look at Beta values. The higher the beta, the more the stock price moves with the market, indicating more risk, but [potentially] more return.

I like Bristol Myers Squibb. It has a good yield and good cash flow. I own that one. I also like Microsoft and Dell because of their cash flow and they've been beaten down lately. I think its about time for tech to come back.

I would say Microsoft seeing as how they're most likely always going to be around and inflation and consumer buying.
