What's Going On With Verizon and AT&T Stocks Tuesday?
Portfolio Pulse from Anusuya Lahiri
Citigroup analyst Michael Rollins upgraded Verizon Communications Inc (VZ) and AT&T Inc (T) from Neutral to Buy, raising the price target for VZ from $39 to $40 and setting a $17 price target for T. Rollins sees a more constructive investment case for large-cap Telcos and anticipates positive catalysts such as updates on lead exposure and evidence of a stabilizing wireless competitive landscape. He still prefers T-Mobile US, Inc (TMUS) as his top-ranked pick.
