10 Best Long Term Stocks To Watch Right Now

The United States is overflowing with oil. In fact, the Energy Information Administration thinks the country could realistically produce 6 million to 8 million barrels of oil per day over the next three decades. The institution's high estimate exceeds 10 million barrels per day. Canadian production isn't doing too bad, either, although supporting infrastructure is less developed for our northerly neighbors. That bodes well for the companies pumping it out of the ground, but it also represents a big opportunity for the companies transporting and refining crude oil.

Here are four of the best investments supporting oil drillers.

Canadian National Railway (NYSE: CNI  )
Canadian National Railway is one company trying to bail-out Canada's ailing pipelines. In 2010 the company didn't move one carload of crude oil. This year it is expected to "choo-choo" its way to 60,000 carloads of oil from the country. This business in particular has boosted sales and income each year since 2010. Investors have to like that growth and where things are headed in the long term. Canadian National is cutting checks totaling $1.9 billion this year to repair its railways, accommodate growth needs, and purchase new freight cars, including new natural-gas powered models. �

• [By Nickey Friedman]

  Ever since Constellation Brands (NYSE: STZ  ) acquired Grupo Modelo's U.S. beer business from Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE: BUD  ) for nearly $5 billion, the company has been seeing unprecedented success. Perhaps it's a sign Anheuser-Busch InBev sold out too cheap, or worse, a sign of inept management. In any event, Anheuser-Busch InBev's loss is Constellation Brands' gain as it competes against other hot beer brands such as those from Boston Beer (NYSE: SAM  ) .

  Monday's Volume: 944,000
  
  Three-Month Average Volume: 517,152
  
  Volume % Change: 80%
  

  From a technical perspective, PCRX exploded higher here back above its 50-day moving average of $52.50 with above-average volume. This stock recently formed a double bottom chart pattern at $46.55 to $47.21. Since forming that bottom, shares of PCRX have started to rip higher and move within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit if PCRX manages to take out Monday's intraday high of $56 to its 52-week high at $56.94 with high volume.
  

  Traders should now look for long-biased trades in PCRX as long as it's trending above its 50-day at $52.20 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that's near or above 517,152 shares. If that breakout hits soon, then PCRX will set up to enter new 52-week-high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $60 to $63.

  Currently, three main companies supply security equipment to the TSA - Safran (SAFRY.PK), Smiths (SMGKF.PK), and Level-3 Holdings (LLL). All three of these companies sell the whole range of their products to the TSA, with an ETD offering included. Recently, however, a new company, Implant Sciences Corporation (IMSC.PK) received approval from the TSA to begin selling their ETD equipment to airport security professionals. This approval has opened the door for IMSC to begin taking some market share away from the more established players in the US and beyond.

  While there are several exchange-traded funds (ETFs) devoted to TIPS, my favorite is PIMCO 1-5 Year US TIPS Index (NYSE: STPZ).

  This ETF has one of the lowest durations of any of the TIPS funds at 2.7 years, so it won’t take much of a ding based on shifting interest rates.
