Verizon (NYSE:VZ) is a blue-chip communications pick with a solid 4.65% dividend. AES Corp (NYSE:AES) was a major player in the utility deregulation boom that swept through the markets in the 1990s. Public Storage (NYSE:PSA) launched its first storage facility in 1972. Catchmark Timber (NYSE:CTT) is a timber company that is organized as a real estate investment trust (REIT). Duke Energy (NYSE:DUK) is a major energy utility in the US. Macy’s Inc (NYSE:M) seems like an odd stock to recommend after its travails in the past couple of years. Seagate (NASDAQ:STX), a hard drive maker, has been doing well in 2018, up 32% year-to-date. The Carlyle Group (NASDAQ:CG) is a global asset management firm. Enterprise Products Partners (NYSE:EPD) is a midstream U.S. energy company.
