Q: In a response a couple of weeks ago you briefly compared GSY and OMF. You indicated that you "consider these two solid for those interested in playing the debt theme". Do you feel any differently now.?
Since neither company rely on customer deposits, is there any reason why OMF has fallen so much more in the last week other than being in the financial business in the US?
How much has the risk changed for investors, compared to GSY? With the big drop in price and corresponding rise in yield (11.8%) do you see OMF more compelling to start a position mostly for income and some growth?
Lastly, which other high quality small to mid size US companies in other sectors would you consider if the goal was mostly income?

Q: Hello 5i,
Portfolio Analytics indicates that I need to add about 1.35% to my Consumer Discretionary/Cyclical and further that I need to increase my U.S. exposure by about 3.05%, so I am looking for a U.S. name that pays a decent dividend above, say, 2.25% in this sector & geography.
Some names that came up from a link (U.S. Dividend Aristocrats) you had previously supplied, in response to another question, that I was considering are:
Genuine Parts - GPC
Leggatt & Platt - LEG
McDonald's - MCD
VF Corp - VFC
So, my questions are:
1. Out of my list are there any concerns over dividend safety?
2. Safety of business in general?
3. Given my need for dividend income in this sector, would you have any other suggestions you might prefer over these names in terms of safety of both business and dividend?
My current Cons. Discretionary/Cyclical holdings are LNF in Canada and MGA (Magna) on the U.S. side.
Retired, income-oriented investor otherwise well-balanced and diversified.
Thanks for any help you can provide - always very much appreciated!!!
Cheers,
Mike
