I’m planning to diversify into some stable large caps, with an initial US$2,000.

My current stock watch list:

ING (ING Group), $45.11 (45 shares )
Dividend & Yield 1.82 (4.02%)
Earnings/Share 5.30
Forward P/E 7.80
Market Cap. 100.37 Bil
fyi P/E 8.50

MCD (McDonald’s), $56.79 (35 shares)
Dividend & Yield 1.50 (2.63%)
Forward P/E 20.10
Market Cap. 67.68 Bil
P/E 44.50

WTW (WeightWatchers), $52.91 (37 shares)
Dividend & Yield 0.70 (1.32%)
Forward P/E 21.60
Market Cap. 4.19 Bil
P/E 22.80

HON (Honeywell), $60.69 (32 shares)
Dividend & Yield 1.00 (1.65%)
Forward P/E 19.20
Market Cap. 45.42 Bil
P/E 21.50

MMM (3M), $94.71 (21 shares )
Dividend & Yield 1.92 (2.04%)
Forward P/E 19.00
Market Cap. 67.81 Bil
P/E 16.10

WTW, MMM and HON will probably just stay on the watch list for awhile, but I’m actively interested in ING and MCD.

ING looks like it wants to drop a little bit. Just FYI, ING will report their Q3 earnings on November 7th. MCD are releasing Q3 numbers tomorrow.
