- Management plans to heavily investment in what they view as Verizon's key growth driver, 5G. That is why I am calling 2019 "The Year Of Investment" for this telecom company.
- I am long Verizon, and I may get longer over the next few months.
Verizon's ($VZ) stock has been under pressure since the company reported what was widely viewed as mixed Q4 2018 operating results. The stock is down approximately 3 points since releasing results, which brings the YTD performance to -4%.
