Re: No problem

Are you kidding me? Verizon has more money than AT&T and Quest combined.

Verizon is spending theirs hand-over-fist on FIOS. AT&T is lurking in the weeds, waiting to pounce. It only takes one bad quarter for some wise guy to suggest that Verizon is "in play".

Re: No problem

They have been at it for 3 years already. Verizon isn't stupid they are keeping their dividends high despite their massive infrastructure investment. AT&T won't be able to merge their way into this cake. AT&T can't have their cake and eat it this time to. Why would Verizon want to be apart of a giant infrastructure dinosaur that is probably going to be knee deep in the red when DOCSIS 3.0 kicks uverse into the toilet.

Not even close. Verizon VZ has a market cap of 128.50 Billion. AT&T T has a market cap of 252.31 Billion which makes AT&T worth almost twice as much as Verizon.

Re: No problem

They may have assets twice as much, but Verizon has revenue 1.5 times greater.

Re: No problem
