Hi Charles,

VZ common today is yielding 6.78% or 7% @ $39.42

T preferred A is currently yielding 6.15% or 6.5% @ $19.23

I'm of the belief that we will see some more cuts this and next year in rates, all of which is a tailwind for these preferred to approach par at $25.00

Schwab money fund etf has been paying 4.12% to 4.30% while parking money. I expect that to approach and possibly go below 4.00% IN 2026.

Both are oligopoly telcos that seem to be allergic to price cutting.

Longer term the is Musk's Starlink, but no last mile fiber. They will be around for a long time. - I believe

Hope that helps.

Bob
