Re: No problem

I was talking about total revenue and no Verizon still made 6 billion net of which 4 was paid in dividends and AT&T made 7.

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

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.

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.

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".
