3 Great Stocks for Low-Risk Investors

The majority of business media coverage these days is focused on sexy, high-flying stocks, which makes sense as these companies attract a lot of attention and volume from market participants. But sometimes, investors are just looking for a relatively safe and steady way to grow their savings.

The three large-cap stocks discussed below can provide just that combination of stability and returns. They all have a long history of success, are leaders in their industries, and operate in sectors of the economy that aren't affected as much by technological disruption.

If you're a low-risk investor, look no further than Home Depot (NYSE: HD), O'Reilly Automotive (NASDAQ: ORLY), and Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX).
