barrons3	Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T) keep compelling me, because they are the new banks. In the old days banks grew slowly but had big dividends, so they made sense to own as income vehicles	Love	November 27, 2009

barrons3	This telecom has the highest dividend yield in our bunch, 6.2%, because many investors fear it eventually won't be able to replace revenue from the industry's ongoing loss of land lines. But through its Verizon Wireless joint venture with Vodafone (VOD), Verizon is the largest U.S. wireless-service provider, notes Darren Pollock, a portfolio manager at Cheviot Value Management. "Verizon continues to add wireless subscribers at a good clip, even without the ability to offer hot products like Apple's iPhone." Its network is generally considered the most reliable in the U.S.	Love	November 21, 2009

barrons3	The third quarter didn't see much dividend action among the 65 Dow stocks. Happily, however, what did occur was positive. Barron's statistics director Peter Miller could find only three boosts among the 30 industrials, by Chevron (CVX), McDonald's (MCD) and Verizon (VZ), although the latter two aren't payable until this quarter. The industrials as a whole disbursed $66.90 in the September quarter, down 14.53% from $78.27 a year earlier, for a 2.95% yield.	Love	October 10, 2009

barrons3	I also see that Palm (PALM) is up, and I remain convinced that Verizon (VZ) will be a key client of the Pre as a way to be able to offer a product line that can be as broad and as customer-friendly as possible given that Apple's iPhone is so powerful.	Love	October 01, 2009

barrons3	Thursday, the company voted a 3.3% payout enrichment, to 47.5 cents a share, from 46 cents. Disbursement is scheduled for Nov. 2 to stockholders of record Oct. 9. The ex-dividend date is Oct. 7. This is the third consecutive year that Verizon has raised its disbursement, and the move will put an extra $43 million in investors' pockets quarterly. "This increase reflects the strength of our cash flow and balance sheet," said Verizon chief executive Ivan G. Seidenberg. "It demonstrates the board's commitment to return cash to our shareholders while continuing to invest in the long-term growth of our business."	Love	September 05, 2009

barrons3	There are many others like this: Procter & Gamble (PG), Union Pacific (UNP), 3M (MMM), Coca-Cola (KO, Verizon (VZ) and AT&T (T). All of them needed to be crushed today and stay crushed; you had to sell the puts or risk letting 'em go out worthless, given this close.	Love	August 20, 2009
