If you were starting a new account with 100k and wanted to build a somewhat balanced portfolio of 10 US equities, with a 10 year timeframe, which 10 would you currently choose, including considering current price?

Q: Hi 5i,
Macys recently announced an offering of $1.3b senior secured notes and judging from share price spike the markets seem to like something about it.
Can you tell me why this happened and if this stock is investable with potential at current price, for a 2 year time horizon. Why/why not?

Thx

Q: I have been looking for under-the-radar U.S. dividend paying companies that offer diversification. While Verizon is hardly under-the-radar, it does seem an excellent diversifier. Bottom line, how would you rate these three companies in terms of dividend paying reliability. Thanks for your excellent input!!

Q: Good morning,

Roku has dropped from approx $140 back to $106. Would you be adding to your position (If light) at current levels or are there any changes in your long term thesis?

Yesterday you mentioned XWD as a good ETF option for international exposure but stated that it had 65 percent NA. Is there a good option for international equity with a value bent without NA companies?

Thanks for being a calming voice during volatility.

Q: Hello,
I wanted to get your thoughts (do you like the space) on Invitation Homes. Debt is on the higher side but it's an interesting concept that is meeting changing lifestyle demands by providing access to high-quality, updated homes with valued features such as close proximity to jobs and access to good schools.
Thank you,
Glen

Q: Frontline is a shadow of its former self a decade ago. It has finally shown some signs of life in the last year: shows a 34% dividend. The fact that it actually still has a dividend seems remarkable.

Is this company buyable here? Is it better managed and is that dividend likely to continue. Was the dividend cut over the last 10 year or eliminated at all during this time/

Thanks for your insights here.
