It's often not correct, especially when you think at the Tech sector. Apple was the only turn-around story I remember.
Today I like to introduce 16 mega capitalized dividend paying companies. Apple dominates the list with a 740 billion market cap and still has a cheap P/E of 13.2. That's unbelievable but do you trust them over the long-term?
However, don't fall in love with a single stock. Just diversify and keep the big risks out of your portfolio. That's what I say.
Attached is a full and detailed list of the 16 mega caps with important fundamentals.
These are the 7 cheapest mega caps:
