Started over 100 years ago to provide surgical dressings in a medical world where a huge percentage of post-operative patients died from infectious disease, Johnson & Johnson has been a wonderful company for shareholders, employees and customers since its inception. With $2.2 billion in cash and $1.4 billion in debt, it isn't as sturdy as many of the others, but the Company has plenty of opportunity.

I'm running out of time! JNJ is in. (Next page.)
