AT&T is good dividend stock T

N/A

+0.50% in 202 days I think AT&T has a strong position in the US and will continue to grow in the industry. If they keep the dividend as is, this is a good buy point. As long as they have an exclusive with Apple, they will continue to drive their network's technology to faster speeds (HSPA+ and eventually LTE). However, when everyone moves to LTE, it will get quite interesting. Continue reading »

DT Tops Estimates on Cost-Cutting – Analyst Blog

38%

German telecom giant Deutsche Telekom (DT) announced results for third-quarter 2009 with reported earnings per ADS of 31 cents, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 25 cents. Net income of €959 million (US$1.4 billion) reflects a 7.2% increase from €895 million (US$1.3 billion) reported a year ago.   This year-over-year growth was fueled by the company’s ongoing cost-cutting initiatives under the "Save for Service" program. Total savings from this program reached approximately €5.4 billion (US$7.7 billion) at the end of the quarter, exceeding the annual savings target of up to €4.7 bi< />< /><><>< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< /><><>< />< />< />< />< /><><>< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< /><><><><>< />< /><><>< />< />< />< /><><>< />< /><><>< />< />< />< /><><>< />< />< />< /><><>< />< />< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><><>< /><>< /><>< />< />...

DirecTV Comes Through with Free Cash Flow - Prior Worries Recede

When I first read the DirecTV (DTV) press release I was worried the stock would trade down. I saw the results as mixed with a few negatives offsetting plenty of positives. I sure was wrong. As the conference call (see transcript here) concluded, the stock was up 6.1%. <>I think part of the gains relate to ongoing takeover speculation as DTV approaches the closing of its merger with Liberty Media Entertainment (LMDIA). LMDIA owns 54% of DTV. The deal dramatically reduces LMDIA's John Malone's influence and simplifies the corporate structure. It also sets up a spin-off of the rapidly growing D... Continue reading »
