Key Issues

Bullish view

Verizon's annualized quarterly dividend was $2.83, and the stock's yield moved above 6%, supporting its appeal to retirees and other investors seeking recurring cash flow.

Bearish view

The yield crossing 6% also reflected Verizon trading as low as $45.73, so the higher income yield may signal share-price pressure rather than improving fundamentals.
