Inside one fund manager's secret to success, with Donald Yacktman, Yacktman Asset Management and CNBC's Melissa Francis.

“Our strategy is putting a forward rate of return on everything and looking at the quality levels,” said Yacktman. “Although we only own equities or equity-like return items, it’s really like buying a bond.

Yacktman said he doesn’t see the economy “roaring ahead” from this point, but suggested the following stocks for investors to consider.
