BUY ON WEAKNESS

Chart shows a nice upward trend and it just broke out of a long-term resistance, which is very important. Seasonally telecommunication sector does very well until the end of January. If you’ve got it, hang in there and Buy on weakness.

COMMENT

Verizon or Cisco (CSCO-Q)? He would choose Cisco as you can make some money off this at these levels. Verizon has a very good yield. Spent a lot of money in CapX, which has been paying off.

BUY

Almost a pure wireless business now and looks pretty good.

HOLD

Telecom sector is a good spot to be in. It’s in the top 5 in the US. Broke through its Dec/09 hi end of it breaks through the Dec/08 high of about $33 and then it wouldn't have any resistance. At top range of the RSI and looks overbought but could still go higher. 6% yield. Stoploss of $28-$29.

BUY

Verizon (VZ-N) and AT&T (T-N) are major telecoms. Yield in excess of 6%, which is attractive in an environment where a 10-year bond is 2.75%. Could be a trap where you go for yield but capital depreciates. Doesn't think this is the case. Great cash flow, which they pay in dividends but also build out networks. The drag is their wire line business.

TOP PICK

Likes it because of the wireless division and their fiber-to-the-home business. Almost 6.5% dividend. This is more than Canadian telecoms so he thinks this will bring the stock price up.

COMMENT

Fundamentally it has shown consistent growth. Everybody loves wireless. Chart shows it has formed a trading range and it is currently testing the top of it. If you are holding up her dividends, continue.

COMMENT

$30 is pretty close to its all-time highs but it could go to $26 before it got to $35. As far as US telecom stocks go, it is not a bad long-term play.

DON'T BUY

Difficulty with large telecoms generally is that they are tied to their wire line legacy business. As that drags them down, wireless builds them up so it is a bit of a wash. Spending huge amounts of money on capital spending in the wireless area. Huge dividend but growth is stagnant.

COMMENT

Doesn't hold telecoms other than BCE (BCE-T). Think there are better ways to play the technology space rather than the carriers. 6.5% yield.

COMMENT

Spent a lot of time and money on cap X trying to build out their network to compete with AT&T (T-N) with some success. He would prefer AT&T instead as it gives you a solid yield of 6.3%.

BUY

Verizon and AT&T (T-N) performances are very much the same but this one has a much higher wireless exposure. If they ever get AT&T's exclusive contract with Apple broken they would probably perform better. Stock is okay for long-term purchase.

DON'T BUY

Really doesn't like the telcos at this time. His model price is $25.60, a -17% differential. More of a yield play with 6.13%.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Telco space is interesting in this one has some yield. Not extremely exciting so he would consider Vodafone (VOD-Q) instead.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 1/08. Up 10.99%.) A defensive name and a tough time.
