* Compares to: CBB FTR CMCSA T
* Pays 12% Dividend yield currently, so little risk. Ex-divident is Oct. 12th. payable Nov. 1st and quarterly.
* Potential to double on Fibretracement to $24 into early 2019 and upward by end of 2019 into 5G massive MIMO communications and fiber optic cable lines for markets served.
* Will be positioned to grow into 2019 with dividends and then catch 5G services growth and target by year end 2019 likely $28-30, as Telecom stocks grow when profits made.
* EPS Growth was -386800%, just indicates it is making progress with profitability vs industry average 144%, but it is a small cap.
* Mkt Cap $914M, 2018 sales will be $1.4B, that's a bababa-billion. Enterprise value with recent upgrade is paultry 3.25B, or shows undervalue ratio 3.25/0.914 = 3.55 and poised to grow customers. Book value buy?
* Debt however is high and will reduce with growth as small-cap to mid-cap (expected for market and opportunity).
* Insider buying is small, but a positive 27,000 shares/yr. last 2 yrs.
* With telecom & cable industry at current prices not sure if it'd be an acquisition target?

EVC Entravision CommunicationsI am not licensed or certified by any individual or institution to give financial advice. I am not a professional Stock trader.
I was asked my opinion on Entravision. You may have noticed I switched from Candlesticks to Line chart format for this one; I think in this instance it gives this particular Stock chart an easier read. The up front answer is--don't touch it for now; unless you are experienced with various spread strategies, in that case it may work for you. For now I can't see it being bullish or bearish. I think it's in limbo. I looked at this with a few different secondary indicators; I used the Exponential Moving Averages (EMA), Stochastics, and MACD Histograms--none of them showed me anything definitive so I left this chart with just horizontal lines. One possibility is this Stock is starting to roll or consolidate. If that is the case it is in the middle of its roll and shouldn't be touched until you can see its support and resistance. This is the only strategy I can currently think of, and the lines I drew were based off that strategy. EMA won't really help when it comes to a rolling Stock so if you are interested in this particular one I'd leave those off. Stochastics and MACD can be of assistance; but when I viewed them with the settings I was originally taught they both showed neutral.
If you are wondering if this is a good buy and hold, that's up to you. I don't see it being terribly bearish; but the downside to being neutral is it isn't incredibly bullish either. It's dividend dropped from $.31 in the second quarter of 2017 to $.05 in the third and fourth quarter of 2017. I haven't done research into why, you can do that on your own if you want. Historically, it's first quarter dividend announcement hasn't been released until late February or mid March so it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to wait and see if they will release a dividend, and if so how much, before making a decision (whether yay or nay) about buying Extravision to hold.
LVLT similar to AKAM review, new trend potential, 400-450$ areaTake profit and manage remaining amount till 400-450$ area.
Charter Communications (CHTR)Potential beginning of a Bear Major Trend Reversal.
Earlier Bull Trend began in August, the bears tested
fairly strong below the exponential moving average (20)
for the first leg down and break of the bull trend.
After the bear test, the bulls retest back up creating a new swing high
(wedge top- 3 pushes up.). This might be considered a 40% probability trade,
but with a wide enough stop loss, it may be worth scaling into. It could be the starting
point of a bear reversal to at least the previous November Low.
