How to find the highest quality large-cap stocks on the ASX

There are plenty of famous pairs in life. John Lennon and Paul McCartney, Tom and Jerry, Mario and Luigi just to name a few. When it comes to investing and specifically investing in stocks, large cap stocks are generally paired with the term "quality". 

That's because these companies tend to have sturdier balance sheets, larger and more reliable customer bases, and dominant market positions. 

And as volatility and uncertainty have spiked across markets, investors have been running into these quality names in droves. But what does quality mean in this environment - and which large-caps are the most worthy of your cash right now? 

Livewire's Buy Hold Sell is here to help separate the good from the bad and the great from the good in the large end of the market. Moderator Hans Lee is joined by Andrew McKie from Elston Asset Management and Rob Crookston from WILSONS to discuss how they find "quality" companies on the ASX. 

And just to show our fund managers can put their money where their mouth is, we asked them to pick their favoured large-cap among five pairs of options.
