Better Buy: Frontier Communications vs. Sprint
Imagine being forced to make a bet on either the Pittsburgh Pirates or Florida Marlins to win the World Series. Both teams technically have a chance, in that they play in Major League Baseball, but that's really all they have going for them.
That's essentially the choice you're getting if you have to pick between Sprint (NYSE: S) and Frontier Communications (NASDAQ: FTR). Each company is a mess with little chance of a turnaround -- but if you have to buy one, there's a clear better pick.
Sprint has a pending merger with T-Mobile that will effectively bail out shareholders. Image source: Sprint.
