Amid Q2 Earnings, Verizon Stock Needs to Do This 1 Thing to Get Back on Track
On paper, Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ) stock should look like a slam-dunk buy, considering its market positioning and low valuation. Verizon is one of only three nationwide 5G providers in the U.S., and given the cost to build such a network, it is unlikely that new competitors will enter the market.
Shares also sell at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of only about 15. Considering the importance of wireless communications in everyday life, a longtime emphasis on quality, and its increasing role in supporting artificial intelligence (AI), Verizon controls its destiny.
Unfortunately, the race to keep up with AT and T-Mobile left Verizon with a total debt of $149 billion, and the company has made very little progress in reducing that burden. Hence, until it makes one critical move, the telecom stock will probably continue to suffer.
