3 Dow Stocks That Are No-Brainer Buys in May

For nearly 128 years, the iconic Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) has served as one of the premier barometers of Wall Street's health. Since its official debut on May 26, 1896, it's evolved from a 12-component index that catered heavily to industrial stocks into a 30-stock index packed with diverse, time-tested, multinational businesses.

Although the Dow Jones is very much in a new bull market -- the index closed less than 200 points shy of 40,000 on March 28 -- it's retraced by almost 5% over the last five weeks. For opportunistic long-term investors, it means bargains abound.

As we leap into May, three Dow stocks stand out as no-brainer buys.
