October 19 Earnings: Verizon Communications: Recovery TimeThe company has been under immense pressure overcoming spectrum crunch and stiff competition in a saturated market.
Verizon's purchase of Yahoo!'s services will allow the company to boost its online offerings and penetrate a new market.
The company's new prepaid offering will aid revenue streams as well.
Weaknesses in the company is impact from Hurricane season with decreased services output.
A further weakness is the still saturated market with stiff competition forcing lower prices.
I believe the company's turnaround phase is in full effect and the company should report a solid beat.
I'm starting Verizon with a $52.50 PT for the post-earnings move.
VZ trade ideas
Verizon Buy IdeaW1 - Double cycle completed
D1 - Special Cycle (second leg of the weekly cycle) completed
Higher highs on D1 and we can now expect either a flat correction and up move or double wave down and up move
Aggressive - if you want to be more aggressive you can try to scalp buys near the bottom of the potential intraday range. Of course this scalp should come with lower time frame cycle inside the range, divergence and at least a trend line breakout.
Always mind the risk reward.
