This chart below proves how AT&T’s stocks continue to increase in price. At closing time from March 31 to April 8, 2011 shows a steady growth of a few cents per day. This slow growth will one day be profitable when one chooses to sell the stock. This company also offers dividends to the stockholders as an incentive for people to purchase more stocks.

This next chart below proves why Analysts recommend T as a safe stock to purchase. When comparing the top telecom services AT&T has the largest market cap. Even though T’s stock is not as high as the other companies such as VZ, CTL, BCE, and CHT only AT&T and BCE has seen an increase in change. Whereas Verizon, CenturyLink, Frontier Communications Corporation saw a decrease in change. Chunghwa Telecom Company saw neither an decrease or increase.

0.11%
0.87%Overall these charts and analysts prove how AT&T is a safe stock to purchase. I wonder with the recent acquisition of T-Mobile if the stock prices will see an increase in price when the merger goes through. I also wonder if stockholders now will hold their stocks to wait to see a price increase or if people will sell to make a quick profit. I am curious how this might affect Verizon and if they will see a decline in stock.
