  • Bought Verizon this Morning

    I’ve been waiting for a couple weeks for Verizon to dip below $30 again (and therefore to get a nice 6% yield again), and it happened today on the JP Morgan downgrade of both AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ) — so I opened a position at $29.58. Telecom companies generally are perceived as defensive holdings, […]
