2 Magnificent Dow Stocks to Buy in November and 1 to Avoid Like the Plague

For more than 127 years, the iconic Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) has served as the most-watched barometer of Wall Street's health.

At its inception in 1896, the Dow contained 12 stocks that were predominantly from the industrial sector. But after more than 50 changes to the highly watched index, the Dow Jones is now composed of 30 historically profitable, time-tested, multinational businesses.

However, the outlooks for these 30 Dow components differ greatly. While some stand out as truly phenomenal values, others have separated themselves for all the wrong reasons. As we motor forward in November, two of these magnificent Dow stocks are ripe for the picking, while another is best left on the shelf.
