Sneak Preview: The Last Bull Market

You need to build power plants that run clean energy? McDermott(MDR Quote), ABB(ABB Quote), and Foster Wheeler(FWLT Quote) can do that, including coal and nuclear.

You need to make sure that urban infrastructure, sewers, levees, and piping are working? Call URS(URS Quote) or Shaw Group(SGR Quote).

You have to build refineries or factories in hard-to-get-to places? That's Fluor(FLR Quote), or KBR(KBR Quote), the old Kellogg Brown & Root subsidiary of Halliburton(HAL Quote).

All of these companies, with the exception of ABB, are based in the United States but do tremendous amounts of business overseas because of their reputation for quality work and expertise. The projects they get called for are long-dated projects that give these companies exceptional visibility to the "out years," where they can make projections for earnings that can last far longer than what other companies can project. For these companies I've mentioned, the foreseeable future extends well into the next decade.

At any given time, the leaders in these mini-bull markets can change. It's hard to pick a best-of-breed infrastructure or oil play that I can guarantee will stay that way for life, so to speak. But the sectors I outline are going to stay strong, and if you call me when I play "Am I Diversified?" on Wednesdays on "Mad Money," you will hear me say that you should swap out of that lame financial stock or that boring drug company and pick a stock in one of the five sectors I just outlined that you may not have exposure in. It's a trick of the diversified trade, but it will ensure that your stocks live in the best neighborhoods possible for years to come.
