The wireless giant has actually underperformed the market during 2020 despite holding up somewhat better than the S&P 500 during the March swoon. My investment thesis has long held that the stock is trapped below $60, and Q2 results, combined with guidance, confirm this trend in the stock will hold up. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4361375-verizon-not-resilient -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20200730153151.GA7976@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Thu, 30 Jul 2020 15:31:51 +0000 From: Moderator <telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org> Subject: T-Mobile's aggressive 5G plan pricing may be all about the death of Sprint T-Mobile's aggressive 5G plan pricing may be all about the death of Sprint by Daniel Petrov According to industry analysts from LightShed and Recon, T-Mobile isn't really starting a 5G unlimited plan price war with its latest campaign that touts a $100 monthly plan for a family of four. There was no immediate reaction from Verizon or AT&T on the announcement, indicating that they don't really see the offer as a market share threat for now, too. https://www.phonearena.com/news/t-mobile-sprint-5g-unlimited-plan-price_id126253 -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Fri, 31 Jul 2020
