Phil Davidson of American Century likes boring but solid stocks, as reported by Seeking Alpha. He tends to prefer stocks that have solid balance sheets and are in industries that are stable but boring, because they bring value. Although volatility afflicted his portfolio recently, which saw a 2.7% decline, he recommends the following stocks:
Johnson & Johnson is a good boring stock whose products people buy no matter what the economic climate.
