- Tuesday, September 18, 2012, 6:45 PM The allure of dividend-paying stocks has not gone unnoticed by Morningstar's top managers, especially with bond yields at historically low levels and interest rates bound to go up over the next several years. The "ultimate stock pickers" tab these 10 high dividend yielders: VOD, GSK, COP, LLY, NVS, MRK, INTC, PFE, SYY, PM. 10 Comments [Quick Ideas]
- Monday, September 17, 2012, 8:05 AM Vodafone (VOD), which has resisted setting aside money for a $2.2B tax bill in India, now says it may make a provision to cover legal risks. VOD is considering the need for a provision after an amendment by India’s government to its tax law made the company potentially liable for the payment, CFO Andy Halford says; a decision is expected by November. VOD -0.6% premarket. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Thursday, September 13, 2012, 1:58 PM Italian antitrust regulators are probing whether incumbent mobile carriers Telecom Italia (TI), Vodafone (VOD), and Wind are conspiring to keep Bip Mobile, a virtual carrier promising to undercut the incumbents when it launches this fall, out of the market. The Italian mobile market is already declining, and judging by the impact upstart carrier Free has had on the French market, Bip's arrival could lead to more pain. Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, September 13, 2012, 12:40 PM The iPhone 5 (AAPL) doesn't support the 4G LTE spectrum bands Vodafone (VOD) and O2 (TEF) plan to use in the U.K. Fortunately for the carriers, the U.K.'s 4G spectrum auction won't start until 2013, which means they may only have to wait a few months from the time their 4G buildouts start before the next iPhone arrives. Unfortunately for them, rival Everything Everywhere (FTE, DTEGY.PK) is already launching 4G in an existing band that the iPhone 5 does support. (previous) Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, September 12, 2012, 6:43 PM Verizon (VZ +1.5%) CFO Fran Shammo predicts the iPhone 5 will only produce a small margin hit for Verizon Wireless' Q4 results, in spite of its generous subsidies. A $30 smartphone upgrade fee announced in April could help cushion the impact. Shammo also claimed Verizon's shared data plans are leading to a smaller-than-expected near-term revenue drop because customer are purchasing larger data buckets. Verizon Wireless posted a Q2 EBITDA service margin of 49%. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Friday, September 7, 2012, 9:21 AM Nokia (NOK) and AT&T (T) plan to begin selling the just-announced Lumia 920 and 820 on Nov. 2, sources tell TechRadar and The Verge. That's a few days after Microsoft's official launch date for Windows Phone 8. Yesterday, Verizon Wireless confirmed to the WSJ it will sell Nokia WP8 devices, but declined to provide specifics. Nokia, which sold off sharply following its phone announcements, hasn't provided any details about pricing or launch partners. 42 Comments [Tech]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 2:44 PM Ahead of the iPhone 5's launch, AT&T (T) announces it has extended 4G LTE coverage to 7 new markets; has expanded coverage in 2 markets; and plans to bring coverage to 47 other markets by year's end. Its PR department worked overtime to spread the news. Analysts have argued Verizon's (VZ, VOD) LTE coverage edge will allow it to take share from AT&T and Sprint (S) following the launch of the next iPhone, which is widely expected to support LTE. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Wednesday, September 5, 2012, 2:43 PM Motorola Mobility (GOOG) and Verizon Wireless (VZ, VOD) introduce 3 new Android phones: the Droid RAZR HD (4.7" display), the RAZR MAXX HD (similar, but with bigger battery/more storage), and the Droid M (4.3" display). None of the phones have edge-to-edge displays, as was rumored, though Motorola is boasting the RAZR HD offers almost twice the talk time of Samsung's Galaxy S III. Samsung has been rapidly taking high-end Android share from Motorola and everyone else. (live blog) 3 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 12:36 PM Vodafone (VOD -2.1%) slips after receiving a downgrade to Market Perform from Bernstein. SA's Qineqt offered a cautious take on the mobile carrier over the weekend, arguing heavy European exposure, call termination rate cuts, and a relatively steep valuation will limit upside. 2 Comments [Tech, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, August 31, 2012, 5:18 PM Sprint's (S) marketing department continues promoting the carrier's cost advantage relative to AT&T and Verizon. Having long taken aim at Ma Bell and Big Red's data caps, Sprint's latest ad (video) skewers their expensive shared data plans. Sprint's Q2 subscriber data suggests its marketing efforts are starting to bear fruit, but it now has to contend with T-Mobile's revival of its unlimited data plan, and a price cut from MetroPCS. 5 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, August 31, 2012, 1:47 PM Ahead of an auction for spectrum owned by TV broadcasters, the FCC is planning to review its rules for determining if a carrier owns too much spectrum. The FCC helped derail the AT&T/T-Mobile merger partly because of spectrum concerns, and also required major concessions from Verizon to approve its spectrum purchases from cable providers. AT&T is (officially, at least) praising the news, but so are smaller carriers such as Sprint (S), who argue current rules don't differentiate between bands. 5 Comments [Tech]
- Thursday, August 30, 2012, 6:28 PM At the end of Q2, Verizon Wireless' (VZ, VOD) 4G LTE network covered 230M people. That puts Big Red well ahead of AT&T (T) and (especially) Sprint (S) when it comes to 4G availability, and leads Jefferies to think the arrival of a 4G iPhone (AAPL) could be a "game changer" for the carrier. The firm thinks Verizon could sell 5M next-gen iPhone units in September, and a whopping 15M in Q4. Wells Fargo argued yesterday that a mass exodus of AT&T iPhone subs is unlikely. 8 Comments [Tech]
- Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 5:03 PM Mobile payments JV Isis is on track to launch in September, says the CEO of Verifone (PAY), which will be handling transaction processing for the platform. Isis, formed by AT&T (T), Verizon Wireless (VZ, VOD), and T-Mobile, enters a crowded mobile payments landscape that has already seen Square and PayPal make huge moves. Also, as Google can vouch, Isis' use of NFC chips could be a handicap, given limited phone and merchant support. Comment! [Tech, Consumer]
- Friday, August 24, 2012, 1:09 PM Verizon Wireless (VZ, VOD) received top marks in J.D. Power's annual study of U.S. mobile network quality. Big Red was said to have the best network in 5 of the 6 regions covered in the study, which measures issues such as dropped call rates and Web connection errors. U.S. Cellular (USM) was named the best carrier in the "North Central" region, while AT&T (T) was declared the worst carrier in 4 of 6 regions. Verizon is hoping its network will allow it to maintain premium pricing. 1 Comment [Tech]
- Thursday, August 23, 2012, 4:15 PM As expected, the FCC has approved Verizon Wireless' (VZ, VOD) spectrum purchase deals with Comcast (CMCSA), Time Warner Cable (TWC), and other cable providers, thereby removing the final hurdle to their clearing. The DOJ gave its approval last week, following concessions related to the companies' reseller deals. Verizon says it will now move forward with plans to sell blocks of 700 MHz. spectrum. (PR) Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, August 23, 2012, 1:51 PM Motorola Mobility's (GOOG) next flagship phone will be called the Droid M and be sold by Verizon Wireless (VZ, VOD) for a subsidized $150, BGR reports. The phone, expected to be unveiled at a Sep. 5 event, is rumored to feature a Qualcomm (QCOM) Snapdragon processor - its predecessor, the Droid RAZR, runs on a Texas Instruments (TXN) OMAP processor. The Droid M will face stiff competition from Samsung's blockbuster Galaxy S III, not to mention the next iPhone. (more on Qualcomm: I, II). 1 Comment [Tech]

Joseph P. Porter: There are ways to squeeze some profit out of it, or at the very least minimize losses (I do use stops), but I'm basically a buy-sell guy.
