3M isn’t nimble – but it is consistent. It has beaten the S&P over the past 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 year periods. In heady up-markets, I’d expect it to lag. In flat or bear markets, it should do at least a little better than the market. Considering we’re far into a bull run, I like the company as a safe harbor. It’s a solid dividend payer (2.3% yield) with a strong balance sheet. Limited near term upside or optionality, but definitely a solid blue chip.
