Verizon (VZ) Stock Looks Reasonable After New Fiber Expansion News
Make better investment decisions with Simply Wall St's easy, visual tools that give you a competitive edge. Verizon Communications stock has quietly built a solid track record over the past three years, yet the current valuation checks point to a mixed picture rather than a clear bargain or obvious overvaluation. The share price has returned 72.7% over three years. This puts more weight on whether today's valuation still leaves enough room for attractive long term returns. On the upside, new partnerships and infrastructure investments in fiber and advanced connectivity can support expectations

The S&P 500 Yield Is the Lowest in History: 5 Members of the Legacy Index Yield 6% or More
Quick Read The S&P 500's combined dividend yield hit a record-low 1.04%, but five index members still deliver dividends of 6% or more, all rated Buy. General Mills (GIS) yields 6.9% at just 10x 2026 earnings, while Verizon (VZ) has raised its dividend for 20 consecutive years. Since 1926, dividends have contributed 32% of the S&P 500's total return, and payers have delivered more than double the returns of non-payers.

How Investors Are Reacting To Verizon (VZ) Amid Starlink Mobile Threat and New Funding Moves
In early August 2026, Verizon Communications completed US$3.75 billion of fixed-to-floating, callable junior subordinated notes due 2057 and 2059 and expanded its Verizon Family app through a new Fi Mini pet-tracking integration, while also addressing recent service-disrupting vandalism and supporting public safety operations. At the same time, investor attention has sharpened around mounting competitive pressure from SpaceX's planned Starlink Mobile offering, which aims to challenge Verizon's core wireless business model.

AT&T Yields 4.7% and Trades At 8 Times Earnings. Is the SpaceX Threat Really Worth That Discount?
AT&T (NYSE: T) appears to face a significant threat from Space Exploration Technologies (NASDAQ: SPCX). COO Gwynne Shotwell announced that SpaceX's connectivity segment, Starlink, will compete with AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile as a full-fledged wireless carrier. Admittedly, such a move appears bleak for AT&T shareholders, since Starlink can cover the entire planet if the law allows, whereas AT&T can cover only the populated parts of the U.S. However, AT&T's 4.7% dividend yield stands out compared to SpaceX, which offers no dividend.

AT&T (T) stock has risen 4.8% over the last five trading days while the S&P 500 slipped 0.1%, and a name that climbs in a flat market is hard to leave alone.

Verizon Frontline powers mission-critical communications for America 250 celebrations
Verizon Communications, Inc. WASHINGTON, Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As the United States continues to mark its historic 250th anniversary, the success of the nation's ongoing celebrations requires the seamless integration of public safety technology and robust, reliable communications. Throughout this milestone year, the Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team has worked in close partnership with more than 40 different public safety agencies across 16 states, serving as the connective tissue for public safety communication during multiple high-profile America 250 events and local celebrations. From the Sail 250 maritime celebrations taking place from Louisiana to Massachusetts, to the opening of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library, these events demanded premium network access. "Our role is to provide fast, reliable and secure communications capabilities that allow public safety to focus solely on their mission," said Cory Davis, vice president of Verizon Frontline. "More than 45,000 agencies trust us as their partner because we don't just provide technology. We provide a proven partnership built over more than three decades working hand-in-hand with first responders on the front lines." The collaboration between the Verizon Frontline Crisis Response Team, composed largely of former public safety and military personnel, and local, state, and federal agencies helped to ensure that first responders at two dozen different event sites across the country had the secure, dedicated channels required to coordinate complex operations efficiently. "Reliability is the currency of public safety," Davis added. "Our focus during America 250 was to empower agencies to execute their duties with the total assurance that their communication capabilities were as reliable as their commitment to the communities they serve." About Verizon Frontline Verizon Frontline is the advanced, award-winning network and technology built for first responders – developed over three decades of partnership with public safety officials and agencies on the front lines – to meet their unique and evolving needs.

Is OPTU Stock a Buy as Mobile Growth Meets Debt and Revenue Risks?
Optimum Communications, Inc. OPTU is expanding its mobile business, improving operating efficiency and investing in network modernization. However, declining residential revenue, elevated leverage and negative free cash flow complicate the investment case. The stock's Zacks Rank and Style Scores point to a setup that may favor patience over an aggressive buy decision. OPTU's Mobile Growth Strengthens the Bull Case Optimum added 50,000 mobile lines in the second quarter, bringing its total to 724,000. Mobile penetration of the broadband base increased to 8.9%, while mobile service revenue jumped 40% year over year to $53 million. The mobile business gives Optimum an avenue to diversify beyond its pressured broadband operations. Higher mobile penetration also supports the company's convergence strategy, which seeks to deepen customer relationships through multiple services. Optimum Still Faces a Shrinking Core Business The gains in mobile have not yet offset weakness in Optimum's core residential operations. Residential revenue declined 6.7% year over year, with broadband and video subscriber losses weighing on results. The revenue outlook remains challenging. Zacks estimates total sales will decline from $8.108 billion in 2026 to $7.668 billion in 2027. The projected decline underscores the difficulty Optimum faces in turning newer growth initiatives into enough incremental revenue to offset pressure in its established businesses.Zacks Investment Research Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Larger telecom operators such as AT&T Inc. T and Verizon Communications Inc. VZ also face competitive pressures, but their broader wireless and connectivity businesses provide more diversified sources of revenue. For OPTU, broadband remains a much more important part of the operating equation. OPTU's Efficiency Gains Cushion Revenue Pressure Optimum is finding ways to reduce costs even as revenue declines. Adjusted EBITDA fell 2.2% year over year to $785.7 million, but the adjusted EBITDA margin expanded to 38.8%. Operational improvements are contributing to the margin performance. Truck rolls and service calls declined more than 20% year over year, while operating expenses excluding share-based compensation fell 5% year to date. These savings can cushion the impact of lower revenue, although they may not fully offset the pressure if the company's top line continues to contract. Sustaining these efficiencies while investing in the network will be important to the company's earnings outlook. Optimum's Balance Sheet Raises the Stakes Story Continues Leverage remains one of the biggest risks to the OPTU investment case. Net debt stood at $25.33 billion and net leverage was 8.0X as of June 30. The debt burden becomes more important as significant maturities begin in 2027. Optimum also reported negative free cash flow of $91.9 million in the second quarter, limiting the cushion available to reduce debt while funding network investments. The balance-sheet risk sets OPTU apart from larger peers such as T and VZ, which have greater scale and more diversified cash-generation profiles. For Optimum, improving operating results will be important not only for growth but also for maintaining financial flexibility.Zacks Investment Research Image Source: Zacks Investment Research OPTU's Scores Favor Patience Over Conviction OPTU currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), with a Value Score of B, Growth Score of D and Momentum Score of D. The Style Scores are designed to complement the Zacks Rank by assessing a stock's value, growth and momentum characteristics. The B Value Score indicates that valuation characteristics are more favorable than the stock's growth and momentum profiles. However, the D Growth Score reflects the pressure from declining sales and the company's challenging operating outlook, while the D Momentum Score indicates that recent price trends remain unfavorable. The Zacks Style Score framework emphasizes that the Zacks Rank remains th

OPTU Stock Falls 28% in a Month: Is the Weakness an Opportunity?
Shares of Optimum Communications, Inc. OPTU have declined 28% in the past month, putting the spotlight on whether the sharp pullback reflects deteriorating fundamentals or creates an opportunity if the company's operational initiatives gain traction. Compared with larger telecom peers such as AT&T Inc. T and Verizon Communications Inc. VZ, Optimum faces a more challenging near-term growth profile, particularly in broadband.Zacks Investment Research Image Source: Zacks Investment Research OPTU Faces Persistent Broadband Competition Optimum's broadband business remains under pressure. Broadband primary service units declined by 40,000 in the second quarter, compared with a 35,000 loss in the year-ago period. Elevated promotions and intense competition in the company's West footprint continue to pressure churn and make subscriber stabilization uncertain. This contrasts with the broader operating trends at larger peers. Verizon has been benefiting from improving wireless subscriber trends and broadband expansion, while AT&T is also pursuing growth through wireless and fiber connectivity. Optimum's Revenue Trends Remain Challenged Residential revenues fell 6.7% year over year to $1.54 billion in the second quarter, while residential ARPU declined 1.1% to $132.22. The company's total revenue fell 5.8% year over year to $2.02 billion. Optimum expects full-year 2026 revenue to decline in the mid-single digits. This outlook leaves the company facing a more difficult growth environment than larger telecom operators that are benefiting from expanding broadband, wireless or fiber businesses. OPTU Shows Progress Beyond Broadband Optimum is making progress in mobile and newer video offerings. Mobile lines increased by 50,000 to 724,000, while mobile penetration rose to 8.9%. Newer video packages also reached 18% of the residential video base. The company's convergence strategy could help improve customer retention by encouraging households to purchase multiple services. Optimum reported that convergence ARPU increased 2.4% year over year to $79.80 in the second quarter, providing one of the clearer offsets to weakness in the core broadband business. Verizon is pursuing a similar convergence strategy through wireless and broadband offerings, while AT&T is also investing in integrated connectivity. This makes customer retention and cross-selling important competitive factors across the telecom industry. Optimum Balances Efficiency With Heavy Investment Optimum is making progress on costs. Adjusted EBITDA declined 2.2% year over year to $785.7 million, but the adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 140 basis points to 38.8%. Operating expenses, excluding share-based compensation, improved 5% year to date through the second quarter. Still, management expects EBITDA to decline in the low to mid-single digits in 2026. Capital spending also remains substantial, with full-year capital expenditures expected at $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion. The capital intensity highlights the challenge for OPTU. The company must continue investing in its network and customer offerings while managing declining revenue and EBITDA. Larger peers face similar capital requirements, but Verizon, for example, expects 2026 mobility and broadband service revenue to grow 2%-3% while maintaining substantial investment in network infrastructure. Story Continues AT&T and Verizon Offer Different Risk Profiles AT&T and Verizon provide useful benchmarks for investors assessing OPTU's recent decline. Verizon carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), along with a Value Score of A, Growth Score of C and Momentum Score of A. Its shares had gained 18.3% over the six months covered in the available Zacks report, supported by improving operating trends and a higher 2026 earnings outlook. Optimum's profile is less favorable from a growth and momentum perspective. The stock has a Value Score of B, but its Growth Score and Momentum Score are both D. The contrast suggests that OPTU's recent decline has improve

Elon Musk Wants Starlink To Take On T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T—Here's Why That's Easier Said Than Done
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said on Tuesday's earnings call that Starlink Mobile will begin service at the end of 2027, and that she expects to acquire "quite a few" customers from AT&T Inc., Verizon Communications and T-Mobile US. Investors took notice, sending shares of all three carriers lower Wednesday after SpaceX detailed the plan. The group rebounded Thursday, with T-Mobile gaining 3.75%, AT&T 2.82% and Verizon 1.12%. T-Mobile CEO Srini Gopalan is not convinced. Don't Miss: A single bad hire can set a startup back years. Here are the 5 hires founders most often misjudge — and why Still Learning the Market? These 50 Must-Know Terms Can Help You Catch Up Fast He told the Financial Times the Starlink threat has been "exaggerated," asking what customer problem a satellite carrier would actually solve. Satellites, he argued, will likely remain complementary to cellular networks. Starlink Just Removed One Big Barrier Starlink's current direct-to-phone service runs on roughly 5 MHz of spectrum borrowed from partner telecoms. That is set to change following the FCC's approval of two SpaceX deals totaling $19.6 billion for 65 MHz of EchoStar spectrum, which includes terrestrial rights. Combined with a planned tenfold increase in next-generation mobile satellites, Shotwell said the upgraded service could be roughly 100 times more capable than today's offering. But Satellites Alone Won't Cut It Satellites are great at covering sparsely populated areas, but dense capacity is harder. Thousands of phones in one stadium or apartment block may be competing for the same satellite capacity, while ground networks can reuse the same spectrum across many small cells. Trending: Avoid the #1 Investing Mistake: How Your 'Safe' Holdings Could Be Costing You Big Time Satellite signals also have a harder time penetrating buildings. Asked by an Evercore analyst whether becoming a true fourth carrier would require over $100 billion in capex, Shotwell said the company "definitely intend[s] to build out the terrestrial component." Musk's Answer: Rooftop Base Stations, Not Towers Rather than replicating the incumbents' large tower sites, Shotwell described attaching small cellular base stations to the same mounts that hold Starlink broadband dishes, deploying femtocells only where demand requires. Musk said the combination could deliver connectivity "probably better and higher bandwidth" than existing carriers. Story Continues Analysts remain skeptical. "It's extraordinarily challenging to imagine a direct-to-consumer service from Starlink that could be competitive with carrier services in the next five years," Craig Moffett of MoffettNathanson told Reuters.

Traders Are Watching the Rockets Prediction market traders are watching one piece of infrastructure needed to deliver Musk's ambitions. A Polymarket contract with more than $490,000 traded gives five to six successful Starship space-reaching launches a 55% chance for 2026, while the odds of fewer than five have climbed to 34%. Musk told analysts he expects at least one flight a day within a year. SPCX shares closed at $114.92 on Thursday, up 6.14%. Image: Shutterstock Read Next: Think you're saving enough for your kids?

T-Mobile's CEO Just Dismantled SpaceX's Starlink Mobile Ambitions as Musk's Firm Pours Billions Into Buying Spectrum: 'What's Their Differentiation?'
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. T-Mobile US Inc. CEO Srini Gopalan dismissed the threat from Elon Musk's planned Starlink Mobile service as "exaggerated," questioning why consumers would leave established carriers even as SpaceX promises higher bandwidth, satellite coverage and a terrestrial network aimed at winning customers from T-Mobile, AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc.. Starlink Mobile Raises Questions Over Consumer Appeal "You've got to ask the question of 'What is the gap in the market that they're looking to serve?'" Gopalan told the Financial Times on Thursday. "Why would a customer buy a new cellular service? Where do they go? What's their differentiation? It's clearly not having a broad network." Don't Miss: A single bad hire can set a startup back years. Here are the 5 hires founders most often misjudge — and why Still Learning the Market? These 50 Must-Know Terms Can Help You Catch Up Fast SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said Starlink intends to become "a true mobile service" and expects to "acquire quite a few" customers from the Big Three. Reuters reported earlier this week that SpaceX bought 65 MHz of EchoStar Corp. spectrum for $19.6 billion through two deals, strengthening its push into a market that has already pressured traditional telecom stocks. Musk said Starlink's planned terrestrial network would "probably" offer better connectivity and "higher bandwidth than what is currently available from cellular providers." Shotwell said SpaceX plans to launch Starlink Mobile satellites next year and start service by the end of 2027. Satellite Networks Face Tough Terrestrial Competition Analysts say matching incumbent networks will be difficult. New Street Research analyst David Barden told Reuters earlier this week that it "makes no sense" for SpaceX to replicate networks built over three decades with about 1,000 MHz of spectrum using only 65 MHz. Gopalan argued satellite service will remain "complementary" to terrestrial networks. T-Mobile already uses Starlink through T-Satellite, which connects compatible phones outside normal cellular coverage. The FCC has authorized SpaceX to provide supplemental coverage using T-Mobile spectrum and approved 7,500 additional Gen2 satellites in January to support enhanced mobile connectivity. Trending: Avoid the #1 Investing Mistake: How Your 'Safe' Holdings Could Be Costing You Big Time The partnership has widened. T-Mobile launched SuperBroadband in April, combining its 5G network with Starlink backup for remote businesses. T-Satellite also supports apps including WhatsApp, Google Maps and X in dead zones. Story Continues That evolution builds on T-Mobile's earlier Starlink-powered satellite data rollout and comes as SpaceX pushes Starlink deeper into direct-to-phone connectivity. T-Mobile Maintains Postpaid Growth Outlook T-Mobile added 277,000 postpaid net accounts in the second quarter of 2026, beating consensus estimates, though additions fell 13% from a year earlier. The company expects roughly 250,000 postpaid net account additions in the third quarter as it migrates customers to newer, higher-priced plans, with about 60% of new customers currently choosing its most premium offerings. "I think the most misunderstood thing from an investor perspective is just the amount of growth left in this business," Gopalan said. "And I think we're ridiculously undervalued right now." According to Benzinga Edge Rankings, TMUS ranks in the 59th percentile for Quality and carries negative ratings across its short, medium and long-term price trends.

Verizon Communications (VZ) Could Be 7% Undervalued After Fi Mini Partnership
Find your next quality investment with Simply Wall St's easy and powerful screener, trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide. Verizon Communications (VZ) has drawn fresh attention after partnering with Fi Inc. to integrate the Fi Mini pet tracker into the Verizon Family app, creating a unified household safety and monitoring dashboard. See our latest analysis for Verizon Communications. Against this backdrop of new services like the Fi Mini integration, Verizon Communications' share price shows steady recent momentum, with a 30-day share price return of 11.73% and a year-to-date share price return of 16.14%. The 3-year total shareholder return of 72.50% points to a stronger long-run payoff profile than its 5-year total shareholder return of 15.53%. If connected devices and telecom partnerships interest you, it is a good moment to look beyond Verizon Communications and review 56 AI infrastructure stocks After the recent share price move in Verizon Communications and the current discount to analyst targets, the bigger gap appears to be between today's price and some intrinsic value estimates. Where does a reasonable fair value range actually land now? Most Popular Narrative: 6.8% Undervalued The most followed narrative on Verizon Communications currently places fair value at $50.50, a modest premium to the last close at $47.06. That gap is what anchors the latest long term view on the stock. Verizon, for instance, had been on my wish list for a very long time, but I kept putting it off due to conflicting reports about the company. At the time (2023), I was able to buy it for approximately $31. Eventually, I did purchase it this week (May 5, 2026) at $47.50 because the company is showing strong figures, including for the coming years. I bought a very small batch, 5 shares. And yes, the psychology of the stock market, if I buy, it drops! I''ll wait and see for now, and if it drops further later, I''ll just buy another small amount to maintain the average purchase price. This purchasing method has already saved me a lot of money over the past few years! My goal is to invest a maximum of $5,000 within one to two years. That brings me to 50 companies in which I have invested, with a current portfolio value of $200,000, which has yielded a return of over 15% per year over the past 5 years, partly due to reinvesting all dividends. This narrative, according to Silvester, is built on a structured plan for position sizing and steady capital deployment into Verizon Communications over time. Read the complete narrative. Story Continues Curious what sits behind that $50.50 fair value? The story blends moderate revenue growth, firm profit margins and an earnings multiple that leans on consistent cash generation. Want to see which specific assumptions link those pieces together and how they arrive at that valuation path? Result: Fair Value of $50.50 (UNDERVALUED) Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts. However, investors still need to watch for potential pressure on Verizon Communications from higher funding costs and any slowdown in demand for its consumer or business services. Find out about the key risks to this Verizon Communications narrative.

Array Digital Infrastructure Inc (AD) (Q2 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Revenue Growth ...
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Release Date: August 07, 2026 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Array Digital Infrastructure Inc (NYSE:AD) reported a 65% year-over-year increase in cash site rental revenue, excluding Dish impact, driven by strong demand and new customer agreements. The company successfully closed spectrum monetization transactions with T-Mobile and Verizon, including a $1 billion deal with Verizon, strengthening its balance sheet. Array Digital Infrastructure Inc (NYSE:AD) raised its full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance to $60-$75 million, reflecting higher revenue expectations and lower operating expenses. The tenancy ratio improved sequentially to 0.96, excluding Dish, indicating steady growth in co-locations and tower utilization. The company has a strong pipeline of applications and expects continued revenue growth from existing customers and new leasing opportunities, with no near-term buildout requirements for its C-band spectrum. Negative Points Array Digital Infrastructure Inc (NYSE:AD) continues to face significant costs related to the wind-down of legacy wireless operations, which are expected to persist throughout 2026. The company's tenancy ratio is negatively impacted by Dish's bankruptcy and cessation of payments, leading to a full reserve of outstanding balances and removal of Dish co-locations from the ratio. T-Mobile interim site revenue is expected to decline as integration progresses, creating uncertainty in future revenue streams. The company faces elevated strategic alternatives costs related to the evaluation of TDS's acquisition proposal, which could impact profitability. Array Digital Infrastructure Inc (NYSE:AD) has a projected 1,000 to 1,700 tenantless towers post T-Mobile integration, requiring ongoing ground lease optimization and potential decommissioning of economically unviable sites. Q & A Highlights Warning! GuruFocus has detected 6 Warning Signs with AD. Is AD fairly valued? Test your thesis with our free DCF calculator. Q: How should we think about the timing of TDS resuming its share repurchase program given the pending offer for Array, and is there now an open window for C-band spectrum discussions following the recent AWS auction? A: Vicky Villarez (EVP & CFO, TDS): We are pleased with our balance sheet flexibility but were restricted from buybacks in Q2 due to the pending Array offer. We remain committed to executing the $520 million remaining authorization as soon as business and market conditions permit, but cannot speculate on timing. Regarding C-band, we are encouraged by the AWS re-auction results for spectrum value implications. We are not in a quiet period now and will explore sales when permitted, but we are not forced sellers given the reasonable carrying costs relative to the asset's value. Story Continues Q: Can you elaborate on the confidence behind the TDS Telecom EBITDA guidance inflection in the second half, and should that momentum persist into 2027? A: Chris Botfeld (VP of Financial Analysis & Strategic Planning, TDS): We revised guidance due to legacy revenue pressures and divestitures, but we are seeing strong momentum in fiber revenue growth (up 13% year-over-year in Q2). This will continue as we deliver more service addresses in the back half. Our transformation efforts are generating cost savings that offset inflationary increases and sales capacity investments. The midpoint guides to a 2% cost reduction for the full year, and there is no reason to think this momentum won't persist into 2027. Q: What are you seeing in terms of fiber overbuild activity in your footprint, and do you still deploy fiber in markets where overbuilders are present? A: Ken Dixon (President & CEO, TDS Telecom): We've seen some overbuilder activity in our cable markets, but those markets are already 22% fibered. We ran those markets through our edge-out analysis and found tremendous oppo

How the page works
How to read the score
It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.
Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.
Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.
It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.
