Ten stocks for the next 25 years

John Melloy | @whatevermelloy

As we close the book on the silver anniversary of CNBC, the company's digital arm is looking ahead to the next 25 years and the trends, challenges and innovations that will define that era.

The following are companies best positioned to capitalize on these waves. Some may look familiar, while others will be a total surprise. However, they all have one or more of the following characteristics: a deep moat, an energetic leader, steady and growing cash flows, and multiple revenue streams. No need to look up their quotes everyday, just stash these away and open in 2039.

Nice list and it would be wise to own any of those stocks.

I would add Amazon.com to the list. I know a lot of people like to dump on Amazon and their CEO is a bit of a bonehead, but they have a huge infrastructure in place that will generate huge revenues and profits down the road. They just need to slow down on some of their more questionable "moonshots" (Segway and Washington Compost come to mind) and treat their workers a little better.

CNBC>>NBC Universal>>Comcast

Regime affiliate.

Never bet against a regime affiliate, it can be financially toxic.

25 years ago, Apple had just had the LISA/Apple III debacle and few were interested in betting on their future but anybody who did would be set today.

Veolia looks good.

My pick is EMC. There will always be a need for storage.

For the life of me I couldn’t recall making the post you responded to - took a while to realize it was from 5 years ago...thought I was going senile.

Thanks for the bump. Amazon has done very well for me and I'm a regular client as well.

Typically I find it a good rule of thumb to invest in companies I do business with. Amazon, Apple, LL Bean, Netflix, to name a few. If I think their products are good, chances are, others will as well.

My pick is EMC.

EMC = Excessive Margin Company. There are MUCH better alternatives to them in the same space. (FTR: I've kicked EMC out of two data centers. Hate them, hate their sales tactics, hate everything about them.) Anyone who's managed I.T. budgets and been responsible for storage as I have in the past, hates EMC.
