I’ve published a long list with over 120 stocks about large capitalized stocks with safe haven characteristics. For sure, safe is nothing on an angry sea but I believe these could be some values in my screen.

Fifteen stocks fulfilled these criteria of which six have a current buy or better rating.
Here are my favorite stocks:
