Help me pick "stocks" for my Roth

[justme]

So with the crash I bought stocks for the cruise company I almost always cruise with because it gives me $100 each cruise (10 cruises needed to pay back my investment). I'm pretty sure they company won't disappear lol

But while I was deciding how much I wanted to spend for the stock I moved over more than I wanted to put on the cruise stock. So I have about $500 in my Roth IRA now to invest otherwise. It's with Fidelity so I think my best bets are

FNCMX - Fidelity Nasdaq Composite Index Fund

FXAIX - Fidelity 500 Index Fund

FSKAX - Fidelity Total Market Index Fund

or one of their target funds probably FIPFX which is 2050. 

The Index funds all have 0.015% expenses and the target funds are all 0.08%


The rest of my retirement stuff is mostly target funds (I think they're all Vanguard? Maybe some Fidelity) with a smaller portion split between international index funds, large/small/medium cap growth funds, and I think maybe a full market or two. Basically I added those to 1) increase my international stocks (target funds are lacking) and 2) increase my portion of stocks because even the 2055 funds have more than I'd prefer in bonds if I put all my money there.

So thoughts?

I also have another aprox $300 in a cash Roth I'll be rolling over but it'll take some time since it has to go through snail mail. (It was in cash because at the time I couldn't find any place that let me buy with less than $1000, but now it's a lot easier to find those accounts).

I'd go with the 500 Index fund and just let it ride.  But I'm pretty comfortable with that as I use the Vanguard equivalent in my own Roth.  The volatility doesn't bother me as I don't plan to use that money unless I need nursing home care.

My Roth is Dogs of the Dow.  I started investing with these about 8 years ago and they’ve done very well.  The stocks are those that pay higher dividends and encompass most sectors.  

There is a good Barrons article that explains it, but the wrong link keeps pasting here.

Stryker is down a lot right now, makes knee hip replacement hardware and all elective surgeries are stopped, just emergency such as trauma
Should go up after crisis when ortho surgeries back to normal

Diageo makes liquor down now but think lots of folks will be increasing ‘adult’ beverages during this stressful time

Starbucks again down now but should get lots of business after

I remember DH#1 doing DOD many years ago, and he did well with it.  I haven't heard about this in many years.  I'm old enough now that I'm not sure this is suitable for me but I should check on it.

Thanks for reminding me about it.

I have started doing a slight modification of it.  Of the 10 Dogs, it seems that there is a list of about 20 that moves on and off the list.  I think that Cisco is the only stock that has been on it each year since I started in 2011.  Anyway, I was getting tired of selling a stock and rebuying it the following year, so have stopped selling and rebalance with new stocks.
