Parker Hannifin: This "is the penultimate company selling a lot of SKUs that are critical to their customers and which they have a lot of pricing power in."

Sloan's fund has positions in all three stocks. His top five holdings include American Express, Berkshire Hathaway, Progressive, Sanofi and General Electric.
