Verizon: The Risk-Reward Just Got Interesting

  • I rate Verizon Communications Inc. a Strong Buy due to its stable fundamentals, consistent revenue growth, and attractive undervaluation relative to sector peers. Verizon offers a 6.2% dividend yield, with 20 consecutive years of dividend increases, making it an appealing option for long-term income investors. Risks include high debt and market share pressures, but I believe Verizon's utility-like stability and dividend profile justify a strong buy rating.
