2014 Merrill Lynch top 10 stocks to buy# Stock
l*3
1 楼
BofA Merrill Lynch is a more cautious buyer of stocks after this year's
gains, and its top 10 large-cap stocks to buy for 2014 are mostly under-
owned and unloved on Wall Street: ADM, Caterpillar (CAT), CenturyLink (CTL),
Citigroup (C), Cisco (CSCO), DaVita (DVA), Exxon (XOM), GM, NextEra Energy
(NEE) and Nucor (NUE).
On CAT, the Lynch analysts point to high foreign sales prospects for
2014, and see strength in energy-related profits offsetting weakness in
global mining; the firm has a $100 price target vs. ~$90 consensus.
XOM is considered inexpensive compared to many large-cap energy names,
it is expected to continue its large share buyback program and should
increase the dividend; Lynch's target is $110 vs. $96 consensus.
NUE is the ultimate contrarian play, as Wall Street is underwhelmed by
steel stocks, but Lynch sees a rebound in commercial building as a big boost
for 2014 earnings; the firm has a $60 target vs. $55 consensus.

I bought C when my MerrillLynch advisor hinted me weeks ago, still
underwater.
I also like CSCO as long term holding.
