Berkshire Hathaway stocks, if you have the cash and can find a willing seller. |

Unfortunately there is no such thing as a surefire bet--even great companies can underperform the market or go down, especially over the short term.
About the safest thing you can do is invest in the stock market as a whole-- buy exchange traded funds that track the S&P 500 such as the iShares fund (IVV) or the SPDR fund (SPY).
And of course you should become familiar with the market and how it works before you start investing. |

Forgive me for being blunt, but any one who is asking about sure fire stocks is an idiot and too ignorant to be let out loose. Do you not even read what people write here all the time? |

In the short term (e.g. days to months) any stock market is a chaotic whirlwind of numbers. It makes as much sense as reading a book backwards, in the dark and through a kaleidoscope.
Long term it is a function of domestic and international economies, political policies, the Federal Reserve Bank (especially for US), technologies, companies governance, R&D products and/or services, significant world events (wars, scientific discoveries, etc.) and many other factors.
Defensive sectors like energy, utility, food/beverage, etc. are good plays. I agree with the other posts. There is a good reason why Exxon Mobil is usually in the top 10 holdings of many stock mutual funds but please recognize that there is no such thing as a surefire stock. Let me qualify that statement, "surefire" stocks are identified after the fact but good solid stocks are aplenty just do your fundamental reaserch. My $0.02 |

Check out Tower Tech, TWRT.ob - they make wind towers. This is a great, small company in an industry that is growing.

There are no "surefire" stocks. Unless you have a very long time frame. There are some with a high probability of increasing in value over time. Such as the ones Louis mentioned. But even those could go down in value and stay down for a year or more. There are many high quality stocks that have had periods where they were down for 5 to 10 years. In the short term all stocks are subject to falling in price.
So the first thing you need to do is define your time frame. The longer you plan on holding, the greater odds of an increase in value. Then diversify your holdings. That will improve your prospects significantly. |
