Verizon iphone! Changes of regulation Increased competition Verizon’s financial performance is not very satisfactory. NIHD vs. VZ Five Year Stock Comparison Conclusion Verizon is a good stock but NIHD just performs better. So we decide to: • Sell Verizon (101 BP) • Buy NIHD (131 BP to 400 BP) • Total Telecom sector holdings – 400 BP (an increase of 30 BP) Q&A
