S&P Sector Reshuffle May Do Little For Telecom Stocks

TedTed
edited September 2018 in The Bullpen
FYI: (This is a follow-up article.)
(A few years back the Linkster owned at least fifteen telecom stock for appreciation but mainly yield. Presently I hold T and VZ, but would recommend CTL in the telecom sector now part of the newly created S&P 500 Communication Services Sector. CTL has been on fire over the last year plus its sporting a 9.5% yield.)

The S&P 500’s three-company telecommunications services index .SPLRCL is about to be folded into a much higher-profile group, but a brighter spotlight may not be enough to boost the stocks as investors continue to favor growth sectors.

Ted
