Dialing for Dividends in Telcos

<>
Although not completely immune from the current global economic slowdown, many telecom services companies are currently yielding higher amounts than tobacco companies and the Utilities Select Sector SPDR (XLU). Although many of the foreign telecom companies included in the ETFI Global Telco Services Dividend Income Index issued special one-time dividends over the past year which inflates their trailing 12-month yield; both Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T) are currently yielding over 6% each while trading at multi-year lows.

The Vodafone portion of the wireless division of Verizon will increase dramatically in value and lead to a buyout by Verizon as its internet services division begins to provide strong cash flow after years of infrastructure build out.

Vodafone would appreciate in the future and a 20% rise isn't much for this well managed company. Though they have had some debt on their books, but it isn't anything for this company.
