5G is the next generation of wireless service, which is expected to increase network speeds and make networks more responsive. The technology could help make applications like autonomous vehicles a reality and will deliver new AR and VR experiences to smartphones.

Mid-band spectrum, such as the C-band, is considered important for 5G deployments because it offers both geographic coverage and the capacity to transmit large amounts of data. This combination is especially appealing to wireless giants who have been trying to fill out their spectrum portfolios.
Concentrated Mutual funds of VZ:
PRBLX holds the largest concentration of VZ (about 20% of VZ shares)

    VZ is a new purchase for Bereshire Hawathway after they trimmed Apple stock. Apple is still their largest holding, but the timing is right on. Sell high (Apple) and buy low (VZ).
  • Yet many across the US still do not have access to the internet much less reliable connections and competent customer service. What a country.
  • Last time we traveled in Europe WiFi are readily available even is small towns. That is being paid from their large income tax. Asia is catching up. Reliable broadband and cell connection are not cheap.

  • As a PRILX holder (and large holder of VZ stock myself) that news made me happy. :)
