Q. I have just started to subscribe to the Switzer Super Report and I am looking for a more up-to-date view on stocks you would buy today – six stocks for dividend and six stocks for growth?

A. Thanks for the question. I trust you are enjoying the Switzer Super Report.

We published both income and growth oriented portfolios in early January – and while the market has rallied strongly, they remain by and large our recommendations. You can read about their latest performance here.

I am reluctant to identify “six” stocks in either category, because I don’t think six stocks provide sufficient diversification.

With these caveats, on the income side, I would be considering the banks (NAB, Westpac and to a lesser extent, CBA), with Telstra, and for sector diversification, AGL and UGL.

For growth, the materials sector (BHP and RIO – although I am very out of step with the market on this), at lower prices in the health sector (CSL and Ramsay), and Woodside and Santos.

I hope this is the information you were after.
