  • Kid2old: $T $VOD This is some news from 9/19 Company engineers demonstrated space-based 5G connectivity by placing a call from Maui, Hawaii, USA, to a Vodafone Group Plc (NASDAQ:VOD) engineer in Madrid, Spain, using AT&T Inc (NYSE:T) spectrum and AST SpaceMobile's BlueWalker 3 test satellite — the largest-ever commercial communications array deployed in low Earth orbit. Fifth-generation or 5G mobile networking is the fastest, most efficient, highest-throughput, lowest-latency, and flexible wireless standard ever released by the 3GPP consortium.

Analysts predict 10 percent annual growth for next five years. 30 percent emerging markets and rest throughout greater Europe. Been very good to me since $25.

  • Forexpro: Re: $T Hi, @RTomczak, Hope you're doing well, despite T. According to an article in SeekingAlpha, free cash flow was down 24% quarter to quarter, down 47% year on year. The most recent quarterly free cash flow was $2.46 bn from $3.2 bn for 3Q13. Last year, between dividends and stock buybacks, $T returned roughly $22 bn to shareholders. The stock buyback in 2013 was approximately $13 bn, and c. $10 bn went out in the form of dividends. Given the current trend in cash flows, the percentage of cash needed just to fund to #dividend on an ongoing basis will be very high. Here's a link to the article, if you want to take a look: http://seekingalpha.com/article/1975351-at-and-t-expect-much-lower-cash-flow-in-2014 All the best. P.S. Apparently, $T just reaffirmed interest in a takeover of $VOD, although with some caveats. Such as being able to finance it, I presume.

All the best.
  • Forexpro: Re: Markets, $VZ, $VOD Good Morning, Friends, There are, of course, no guarantees that the good times will roll until tomorrow's opening, but futures are well up in extended hours trading, reaching 1648.50 (and currently 1646.75, +15.50). Some of the Syrian @brick in the ol' Wall of Worry has clearly been chipped away. [IMG]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b583/Forexpro1/ESU3Hourly020913.png[/IMG] An announcement from the boards of $VZ and $VOD announcing a $130 bn buyout by $VZ of VOD's stake in Verizon Wireless is expected later today (I saw noon EDT at one source). Supposedly, $VOD will receive half cash, half $VZ stock. The fun part will be learning what percentage will be quickly distributed to $VOD shareholders. Have a great day, Friends.

  • jgg8387: Re: $VOD, $VZ @Forexpro. Thanks for taking the time out of your weekend to share your insights. Given the bankers will be able to throw a nice party, they might also see an earnings bump... any ideas on which bankers are leading the deals? I couldn't find any mention in the articles I read on the story. Thanks, joe-

  • Forexpro: Re: VZ/VOD, Investment Banking Fees Hi, Friends, FWIW, the WSJ quotes speculation that total fees for the banks representing $VZ and $VOD could amount to $500 million or so. Not a game changer, necessarily, but a very nice piece of change, particularly for those at the top of the food chain. All the best.

  • Forexpro: Re: $VZ, $VOD Good Morning, Friends, In a rare "win-win", shares of both these companies are higher overnight on reports of renewed talks aiming at buying $VOD out of its 45% share of Verizon Wireless. The $FT, as usual, does a good job of outlining the stakes and issues, albeit largely from VOD's perspective: http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/3/e62c40e2-0f09-11e2-9343-00144feabdc0.html?siteedition=intl#axzz2dMLcqSoY Here are the respective hourly charts showing the overnight action: [IMG]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b583/Forexpro1/VZHourly290813-1.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b583/Forexpro1/VODHourly290813-1.png[/IMG] All the best.
  • rck89: @Forexpro@rck89 - Hi @Forexpro - Didn't we discuss these two - $VZ, $VOD - some months? I seem to remember saying to you that the size of the potential $VZ buyout almost equaled $VOD market cap...or at least it was big enough to move the stock a lot. Anyway, I BTO a bunch of $VOD Jan 30 calls and have languished with them for months...until today! I didn't sell any on the open today - probably stupid and / or greedy. So what to do now? Any insight on when we might hear more on this? Guess all depends on news flow. Your thought, please. Thanks.
  • Forexpro: Re: $VOD, @Rcik89

  • DAN: Hey @Forexpro -- thanks for that info. $VOD looks like it's bounced this morning and put in a "trading low". But there is plenty of overhead resistance on this one. Direct headwinds. @Dan
  • Forexpro: Re: $VZ, $VOD Hi, Friends, Just a headline, from Bloomberg ("We're Watching You!"): Verizon Wireless to Make $7 Billion Distribution to Verizon, Vodafone P.S. According to Reuters, the payout to 55% owner $VZ works out to 3.85 bn; if the share count is correct at 2.861 bn, that's about 1.345/share. At last glance, $VZ was up 0.54 after hours. All the best.
  • rck89: @Forexpro@rck89 - $VZ Distribution - Any idea was this distribution means to VOD? It should be huge. I believe that $VOD is the real way to play a $VZ Wireless buy-out. Your thoughts please.
  • Lavrock: $VOD - I had the same idea a few weeks ago. But, I read a few articles about $VOD and the consensus was that Verizon Wireless was far and away its best investment. One of the main reasons given is that $VOD doesn't manage it! Apparently, it's got lousy management and a whole bunch of investments in some good and some not so good markets around the world. Don't think us home gamers have an edge on this one.
  • rck89: @rck89 - $VOD - This company might have a good (or bad) management, I really don't know. But the fact remains that if it gets $100 billion for its share of $VZ wireless, the stock just has to go up! I've bought some Jan 30 calls as a spec. My 2 cents.
  • Forexpro: Re: $VOD, @Rck89

    Hi, @Rck89,

    I'm going to have to look at this more carefully, as $VOD is an ADR. In Dollar terms, it receives 3.15 bn on Jun 25 for its 45% share. My understanding is that many traders are expecting/hoping that its share of Ver ...
  • rck89: RE: VOD@Forexpro - Thanks for your insights. I'm not sure that we really have to over think this one. The market cap of $VOD was only slightly larger than the $100 bill number that has been tossed around. So the proceeds have to really inflate the stock if the deal comes to pass. They may "screw-up" the proceeds once its in their hands, but I'll be long gone from my positions before that . This is just a market cap trade - to make up a new expression!
  • dfaz: $T or VOD-I have been buying $VOD and today its down with a good chance to add as their is some bs out of Europe on roaming, their Verizon stake plus the #dividend is very attractive. I have owned $T and sold out of it, track it and below $35 I really like it
  • cmac: $VOD taking starter position in numerous accounts. $VOD owns 1/2 the Verizon wireless, and if Europe is turning itself around, I get some exposure there. On the weekly chart, it is a decent place to start a position. Room to add more closed to the 50 day. Nice yield too, and much less expensive on a p/e basis compared to $T and $VZ (but that's the euro risk priced in).

  • taylor: $NFLX - Netflix Inc., the Los Gatos, Calif., movie- and TV-subscription service, was downgraded to equal weight from overweight at Barclays Capital. In a Tuesday report, analyst Anthony DiClemente affirmed his price target on the shares at $115. "Recently new competitive threats have emerged in the subscription-video-on-demand market," presenting "a greater risk to Netflix's [subscription growth] at a time when digital-content costs are increasing dramatically," the analyst wrote. DiClememte cited particularly Amazon Prime's subscription $VOD service, Comcast's Streampix service, and "the proliferation of TV Everywhere" from Dish Network. The analyst also wrote that he sees competitive risks in international markets.

  • jimP: $S VZ $VOD Perhaps $VZ or $VOD may have more potential for upside this morning as traders look for wireless p;layers with pricing power. #Cramer on #CNBC just mentioned that $S does not have any pricing power.
  • sinvanco: $VZ T both subsidized at the same rate around $300, and both take a hit in earnings. I could never understand the rational for this deep subsidy. If you walk into any of their stores you upgrade to a new iPhone you pay $199, you cancel the deal the next day you are penalized $175 , your total outlay $375, they pay Apple around $490 a unit. The business model doesn't work. If you look at carriers around the world non is subsidizing the iPhone, they may give it with payments for extended period of time, that way they avoid churning, or they just sell it at their cost with a contract commitment. If you really want to play the telecom you are much better off with names like $VOD CEL $PTNR that pay higher divided as well.
  • jimP: $VOD VZ MIICF While I was doing my homework on $VZ I took a look at $VOD (VZ's wireless partner) and MIICF. Both are showing strength this morning but I cannot find any news.

  • Hans_Schultz: $VOD - Starting it's second week above the prior $24 resistance. Still yields 7% up here too. I've held a 1/4 to 1/2 position in it since about $19.50. I didn't really have expectations of it staying strong beyond $24, but it looks like blue sky for the moment. They own a huge stake in Verizon wireless. Curious if any others out there are in this or have an opinion on it. I know some say the #dividend might not be maintainable, but others say it is. It does tend to be a little "gappy" being a foreign company.

  • milt: $BG, $ADM, $VOD, $VZ, and $T -- lightened up on $BG again this morning.. Now I'm waiting for it to show that its previous support holds or that it will make a higher low before I buy back. Either way, I'm waiting for support to show. $ADM - looks like its holding in at these levels. the 200 dma, simple, is rising up to meet its current trading levels. $VOD bought some this morning. It goes along with $VZ and T. $VOD I think is all wireless - but really I don't care. I'm hoping its #dividend at 5.89% (but about 1% lower than $VZ and T) keeps its price above the 200 simple DMA. If not I'll get stopped out. Mostly I'm in cash, so these are not big positions. Don't want to post about being long and imply I'm wildly bullish.

  • Yachtsman: Hi @Bob I don't know about as a "play", but as the largest wireless carrier in Europe, a 4% yield and as a long-term core holding of mine I'll be adding should it get back to the mid 20's or down even lower near my original cost basis. $VOD is fundamentally a great company and has a huge stake in Verizon which they are considering selling and paying out a big one-time #dividend, buying back more stock or increasing the exisiting #dividend. After seeing what has happened with $T after the iPhone launch, I think their decision to withdraw from the negotiations has been validated. IMO. Long; $VOD
  • Yachtsman: $VOD It is being reported that Vodafone most likely will receive the exclusive European wireless distribution contract for the iPhone. I normally do not highlight stocks I own in my income portfolio but Vodafone with its 5.5% yield, large existing stake in Verizon and worldwide (ex. Asia) distribution capabilities has hit a five-year high today. The stock took off in mid-May at 28 in anticipation of the iPhone contract. I still think at 33.50 the stock offers a potential for good total return,longer-term outperformance, and international exposure. It may also turn out to be another great way to play the iPhone. Long:VOD
