It deserves to crash just like AAPL

Afraid you can’t blame the analysts for the Great Recession
And the analysts were saying what about the banks as they were building the bubble?
T is regarded as a safe, recession proof investment with a good dividend yield. However, given that this company is over its head in debt and managed by incompetent clowns, this is a very poor investment for the long term.
Want to see what lies in T's future? Look no farther than General Electric and Sears,
Afraid you can’t blame the analysts for the Great Recession Ladies & Gents, the bankers in many of the top Wall St. companies were several years into building a Real Estate bubble that began to burst in late 2007 when the flood gates eventually opened up in October 2008....the words that put fear in the real estate economy, "sub-prime backed mortgages."
The people that should of faced the music mostly didn’t, with a few exceptions. Analysts were not part of the dilemma.
As for stocks being driven by "hype, herd instinct and computer trading," I agree with that....show me a stock that hasn’t gone through that. Yes, I am interested to see T’s 4Q report too
BTW, it’s against SEC regulations to mislead the analysts.
Um, and who went to jail as a result of the 2008 collapse?
Short term moves in any stock are driven by hype, herd instinct and computer trading. Actual business performance can only be measured over time. We'll see how solid those gains are when 4Q results are announced.
“Safe dividend?, Tell that to GE, but little 2 late, LMAO“
Actual investors don’t compare apples to oranges. T’s value as a bond surrogate is primarily its dividend safety and since free cash flow pays dividends and the CEO just recently briefed analysts regarding FCF, https://www.streetinsider.com/dr/news.php?id=14876191 I’d say T remains a solid investment. BTW, it’s against SEC regulations to mislead the analysts.
Safe dividend?, Tell that to GE, but little 2 late, LMAO
From your tone/desperation it seems like you shorted T in the market at the worst possible time and those ‘shorts’ are coming due....perhaps I’m wrong!
For the T nay sayers, market analysts like Citibank, J.P. Morgan and many more have been steadily upgrading T stock since the last quarterly report. I’m suspecting we will eventually learn that corporate T insiders have been buying on the speculation of a good quarterly report on January 30th.
When Wall St. analysts start to put their clients money where ‘their’ mouths are I simply have to sit up and take notice. What do all these financial analysts, on or off Wall Street know, certainly more that I do!
Insanity? The DJIA was down 660 points, T was up....makes you wonder, huh?
Dead cat bounce. Give it time.
Not really. With it’s safe dividend it acts sort of like a bond and when investors need a safe place to park money it will almost always be one of the places investors choose. Usually a bad day for the market at large is a good day for T.
