		I'm taking a poll lol. If you could pick one stock to hold over the next 5 years that is at or near a 52 week low, which would you choose?
SBUX
M
T
MO
SJM
MRK
CAH
OMC
These are all big name companies that you know. What would be your #1 pick out of this list?
Me personally would choose SBUX. I base this off of future growth and no Amazon affect lol. 
But I have to say there are a lot of great high paying dividend stocks on this list.

		Would be either SBUX or MO for me.
Some other good names on the list though too.
	
	
	
	
		
	
 
 
	
	
		It would be either SBUX or T for me.  SBUX for the capital gains or T for the income.   Like Eric said, there are other good names on the list.

		Why limit it to one? How about ranking them, whatever way you use, and take equal positions in the top 3?
My top 2 would be CAH and OMC

		I just recently took a small position in MO and been dripping SBUX and CAH, actually been dripping all stocks in both IRA's till the new year.
Interested in T but been buying VZ lately
Hard not to like smuckers and merk
Amazon...it's a Goliath that disrupts almost any industry it enters, that should make competitors pick up their game plan. When I go on Amazon and read reviews I've been finding myself going to the actual companies website, i.e., Samsonite, just for the fact it seems I read more and more reviews questioning quality issues and knock-off complaints, if I go to the actual company's web site I shouldn't have to worry about buying a knock-off. It's also not a huge price difference, if any, imho.
I also read Kroger moving off the AWS network and moving it's operations to Alphabets and Microsofts after the Wholefoods purchase...Why not? Why fund a competitor? I'm assuming other large companies to follow suit as Kroger, if not already doing it.
