The telecom sector is not known for being the most exciting sector out there. After all, almost everyone in America now has a wireless plan, and there's really not much difference among the major carriers in terms of network coverage and speeds. That means there's not much pricing power or industry growth, making the major U.S. telecom companies steady but unspectacular investment.
That is, with the exception of T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS), which is doing everything under its power to make wireless an exciting growth story once again. That's especially true in the 5G era, and now that the company has closed its acquisition of Sprint. The recent tie-up has given the combined company hidden growth potential, which could make T-Mobile a potential home run stock with less risk than many other investment options. Here's why.
