Moffett is an idiot.
AT&T is screwed long-term because it's wireline business is dying and it refuses to make the needed investments in fiber. Wireless is what AT&T's future depends on.
VZ, on the other hand is pretty well set long term but may take a few hits from idiotic "analysts" like this moffett fool who can't see past the next dividend check.
I'd go long on VZ. Buy and hold. Short T.

| Anybody remember Jack Grubman?
The last time telcos when south in a big way, Mr. Grubman was singing "everything is wonderful" when he knew it wasn't (see »www.sec.gov/news/press/2003-55.htm). Instead of fronting a pump and dump scheme, maybe Mr. Moffett is working the naked short sale side of the street. In any event, history has shown that the experts' ability to move the market far exceeds their insight. |

Re: Happy Monday!
Yea, AT&T really doesn't care anymore. My dsl speed dropped to 384k due to line issues and their response was 384k is acceptable. Had no choice but to drop them. Plus it was cheaper to cancel the landline and dsl and bundle the cable internet with cable tv and 12mb is a lot better than 1.5mb. |

While I haven't read his report, I can say the following is true:
1. Many may not cancel wireless service, but may adjust their plans (i.e. cut out data or messaging plans, or move to a lower voice plan)
2. POTS lines are overpriced... they are going.
3. TV service (Uverse) and many services are expensive. Many may cut out these services if they deem them unnecessary, or cut the 'fluff' bundle. Eg. I 'can' get OTA of +40 channels here in SoCal, do I need TV from TWC or AT&T? I can get a Internet + VoIP package (or go wireless) and save.
4. Expansion - Wireless is nearing a limit we're nearing 200 million wireless in the US.- and I expect growth of new customers to slow.
I'd give up having a 6-18Mbps to replace with a 1.5-3Mbps if I was to save a few $$ / month. |
