3M (MMM)
Stock price as of April 6, 2021: $194.84
3M Corporation has one of the most solid pedigrees of any company, if you’re looking for a true blue chip stock to invest in. A member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, 3M was founded in 1902 and is now a member of the Fortune 500 with over 60,000 products. As a conglomerate, 3M has its hands in a wide variety of products, but its transportation infrastructure division, which provides materials and technologies to everything from road building to automated vehicles, seems primed for growth. On top of its potential for a growing share price, 3M currently offers a dividend yield north of 3%.
