General Electric. It is in so many businesses that it is basically a mutual fund. (I own some.)

GAM, a closed end fund that invests in large cap solid companies and has an excellent long term record. 10 year return of 15% annually. And best yet, it sells at a 9% discount to net assets. Geez, what more could one ask for?
There are other closed end funds that have outperformed this one, but they have a great deal more risk. But for a one choice only, this is the one I would pick. Note: it is a stock traded just like any other stock on the NYSE.

Honda Motor Corp. For the entire life of that stock it just goes up, and when that one splits, it has previously split at a 5:1 and 4:1 ratio. This is of course a long term stock.
Short term would have to be Nintendo's stock. While it has been shooting like mad lately, its going to peak soon and just be steady. but I feel its still go a lil bit more it can travel to make some quick cash.

When people dabble in stocks they usually pick a stock option with a definite future ,,,,,,, Communications is always going to have a future ,,,,,, That's why I would opt to buy stock in a company that's into the development of the lastest forms of communication ,,,,, Fiber Optics ,,,

It depends on your goals.
Are you looking for Yield or Growth? (or even harder - both?)
Think about what will be needed in future...
I'm thinking pharmaceuticals and health care... because of the aging population worldwide from the baby boomers...

An exchange-traded index fund, of course...

It is not wise to invest all your money in the same stock.
