[Wall Street Forum]

What is your favorite value stock? Which stocks are your go-to for long-term investments? I'll tell you my favorite and you guys can chime in with your own


CHD - Church and Dwight

Church and Dwight is the best value stock you've never heard of.

They make common household products like toothpaste, baking soda, detergent.

I first learned about CHD around 2011/12 when I was researching stocks that held up during the 2008 credit crash.

Unsurprisingly, CHD performed phenomenally during that time. The products they make are recession proof.

Here is a 10-year chart of CHD:

I always liked 3M stock for the long term. United Health - UNH - is a close second for me as a value stock

Anybody like Home Depot stock? Looks like they have decent fundamentals and a healthy stock chart

[Wall Street Forum]

I always liked Home Depot. Keep in mind their business goes hand in hand with the housing market. When the economy gets depressed, home repairs are one of the first things people cut back on. Combine some fundamental and technical analysis on this one and you'll be fine
