We recently did a Top 10 Favourite Canadian Companies<\/a>. This time, we\u2019re looking at the beloved companies that have brand recognition across the world. These corporations have operations across the globe and are leaders in their domain. Their balance sheets are good and make great long-term investments. They also usually pay a dividend. Most of them are considered blue-chip stocks.<\/p>\n

Blue-chip stocks are highly respected and widely known, publicly-traded companies. These well-established stocks are thought to be financially sound and are generally less volatile. Household names such as Coca-Cola Company (KO-N)<\/a>, Microsoft (MSFT-Q)<\/a> and many others are examples of blue-chip stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a good example of an index that follows blue-chip stocks.<\/p>\n
