This is a great company period. Last quarter was as powerful as AT&Ts Iphone craze wireless results but Verizon has a great dividend, its at its 52 week low and also it is boosting competition with AT&T. The new FIOS didn't go as well as planned but I think it will gain momentum later on with this product to combat the cable companies. If the workers go on strike it might be a good time to buy more or start buying verizon....

possible acquisitions, including Alltel, warrant a higher than usual risk level that needs to be assessed and this may limit higher valuation levels.

AT&T Faces 2009 Growth Challenges on Wireline Weakness, Reiterating Hold

4/23 - "We believe wireline margins will continue to be soft relative to prior management guidance of 36%, with 1Q as a starting point of 34.1% and a revised forecast for FY08 at 34.8%, as we believe the headcount reductions and planned cost improvements for '08 may be offset by greater line loss and further marketing aggression on video."
"We believe wireless margin expansion remains intact, although the slowing postpaid growth and mix shift to prepaid and wholesale creates risk to the sustainability of top-line revenue growth. We believe wireless revenue growth will slow to 8% in' 09...D...

Verizon is a utility play with some pizzazz

Filed under: Internet, Verizon Communications (VZ), Stocks to Buy 
Readers of this space know that one of the preferred plays is a utility company with a demonstrated business model, solid balance sheet, ample cash, decent dividend, and with an extra revenue stream / business that could provide additional growth. Verizon is one such company.
Verizon is not your typical, former AT&T (NYSE: T) unit. Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ) is a modern, diverse telecom provider for the early digital age.
Verizon has three impressive divisions: landline, wireless, and business services. And the numbers sp...

VZ is building now for huge gains in the next 2-5 years. They are creaping in on the big cables providers with their FIOS implementation and they are already the largest wireless phone provider (and their customers are more profitable per phone then any other wireless provider). Theor dividends are good and the stock price is reasonable for our BEAR market. Buy and DCA VZ. VZ is a long term investment.

 photo credit: lucasreddinger This article is a reprint of my February 22, 2008 RealMoney column Forget the debate over whether telecom is a buy or sell. Make money being indifferent. The decisions by Verizon ( VZ - Annual Report ) and AT&T ( T - Annual Report ) to offer unlimited wireless plans for $100 has launched a furious debate at RealMoney over whether the move is the right thing or the wrong thing to do. I see both sides of the story, and if anything lean toward the side of the bulls. But while the bulls and bea ...

In 2000 the Country saw a credit crunch that was instantiated by World Comm, Enron, Global Crossing defrauding banks out of billions with lies about profits and sales in order to borrow cheap money. No matter how many times and how deep Greenspan cut the rates. The banks refused to loan new money to the telecoms. Instead they dumped the cheap money on to the consumer. The telecoms had no money, and were slamming into their trillions in debt. As PSI NET, World Com, Global Crossing, RCN Communication all went under and Sprint, Verizon, AT&T struggle to survive.

FiOS makes the difference. a Buy
VZ

-19.19%

Verizon has its established areas of business, but where they shine because nobody else is in the market is the FiOS service they offer. This extremely expensive investment will pay dividens for Verizon with an increased customer base and holding keys to the implimentation of this technology. Some of this pick is speculative, but it's considerably "safe speculation" in comparison to other picks I've had.
