Better Buy: AT&T Inc. vs. Verizon Communications

The U.S. wireless industry is dominated by AT&T (NYSE: T) and Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ). The two telecom giants account for about 70% of wireless customers and an even larger share of industry profits. But with pressure from T-Mobile and Sprint in the recent past, both have struggled to grow revenue.

Still, investors looking to get into the telecom space may be attracted to AT&T and Verizon due to their scale and dividends. But which stock makes a better buy: AT&T or Verizon?
