10 of the Best Blue-Chip Stocks to Buy for 2022

#1
Portfolio construction is an art, not a science. Some investors prefer growth, some like value, some favor large household names, and others prefer smaller companies. There's no one correct answer in terms of building a portfolio. However, if the events of the past two years have taught any lessons, one is that blue-chip stocks remain a leading option for portfolio construction. As things such as disruptive technology stocks and economic reopening trades have seen their fortunes violently swing about, blue chips have tended to offer more stable, predictable returns. Companies with a long track record of growing earnings and dividends that can withstand the occasional recession tend to provide the most reliable long-term results. With interest rates soaring and geopolitical tensions at unprecedented levels, the case for owning defensive blue-chip stocks is stronger than ever. Here are 10 of the best blue-chip stocks to buy for 2022.
