it's only up 1% after a year (down 30% over 5 years lol, but I missed that thankfully). But idk is there any place for Verizon to even grow anymore? Everyone uses their towers already. I'm thinking of just selling this stock and buying QQQ or SPY >_>

Intel doesn't seem like much of an upgrade. Down 50% in the last year. Yea buy low, but there's not really any indicator that it's going to recover.

I always heard to play that like any ol utility company. Buy it as part of a balanced holding and some dividend income, but do not expect any massive growth. Slow and stable is what you get.

Yeah I'd much rather just have the $20 than a share of Intel. They are in a bad way and it will take years before they make any significant turnaround.

Verizon just negotiated to acquire Frontier to expand their fiber network in the western US. This should drive growth, albeit years down the line.

Many analysts covering it expect international growth as cell phone usage expands outside the US.

You cant really compare individual securities to funds. If you find SPY or QQQ appealing something like Verizon doesnt have a compelling case.

Intel is screwed through at least late next year. Maybe longer.

Intel is struggling to keep their laptops and desktops on the same silicon or even the same fabricating company. Once every few years, they reunite and then quickly split again.

The naming schemes are insane and you have no idea what you're getting. Completely different generations of npus and transistor counts.

Right now, there's Arrow Lake S for desktops, Lunar Lake M for premium laptops but embedded memory, Arrow Lake U for low power laptops, Bartlett Lake for embedded, Wildcat Lake for entry level, Arrow Lake H for performance laptops. And out of all of these, Lunar Lake is the most modern npu and GPU.

Maybe there will be an Arrow Lake refresh this year. But desktops have nothing new until Nova Lake by the end of next year. Panther Lake for laptops this year should be amazing though.

And then there's still no solid evidence that Razer Lake in 2027 will be for desktops. Might just be H, U, and M.

Verizon has a dividend, so if you leave it alone (set to reinvest) you will gradually accumulate additional shares.

I've just been doing QQQ, Spyg and Cal-maine (for dividend) for the past 4 years and it's been really good for me.

Cal-maine has more than doubled since I started buying it, it's crazy. With bird flu affecting livestock and the Trump administration likely not going after them for price gouging, I'd be surprised if it doesn't continue to increase. Obviously make the decision that's best for you, though.

I don't bother chasing too much, just market ETFs and some dividend stocks that I can hang onto extremely longterm. It's slow, but steady. The past like, 7 years have been really good for even conservative investors.

Earnings look good despite DAU numbers being lower than expected.

I personally don't want to touch Reddit because I feel like NSFW carries a lot of the traffic on that site (i have no actual numbers to support this theory, but I'm basing my guess off of tumblr's massive drop after banning NSFW) and I'm betting NSFW will get cracked down on more and more now that they're public. However, I was wrong about the IPO, so I could just as easily be wrong about avoiding it for this reason now.

I don't honestly think Reddit's value is in it's advertisable user base, but it's years of quantifiably rated posts and user interactions and how that data might be useful for AI model training. But that's just my onion. I don't think annoying karma farming one liners are valuable user interaction data, personally.

Verizons dividend is one of the main things keeping it in lots of portfolios.

Yeah they pay dividends, but it's like 6%. I'd rather put it in something that makes 10% >_>

6% is an incredibly high yield for a large cap company that pays a qualified dividend
