7 5G Stocks That Will Lead the Next Technological Revolution
- [Editor's note: This article was updated on Aug. 10, 2020, to remove incorrect information on Ericsson.]It's true that fifth generation (5G) telecommunications is more an advertising line than a real thing for most people. But that is changing and 5G stocks are quickly becoming a hot investment theme.All major phone makers are making sure their newest models are 5G-ready. And telecom equipment makers are running a full speed to build out 5G equipment and networks around the globe.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsWhat's more, there's another feud between the U.S. and China on 5G technology. While China has been a leader in 5G development and has already woven into telecom systems in the rural U.S., Washington is voicing concerns over the security of the networking equipment.China says it's simply a ploy to hamstring Chinese companies, while U.S. and European companies catch up in the 5G market.Wherever the truth lies, there's plenty of opportunity with 5G stocks, since China's privately held Huawei isn't likely to run away with all the global 5G business. * 7 Travel Stocks to Buy Banking On Pent-Up Demand My selection of the best 5G stocks includes the following seven stocks: * Telefon AB LM Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) * Samsung Electronics (OTCMKTS:SSNLF) * Digital Realty Trust (NYSE:DLR) * Corporate Office Properties (NYSE:OFC) * BCE Inc (NYSE:BCE) * AT&T (NYSE:T) * Verizon (NYSE:VZ)For an in-depth look at the biggest winners in the 5G revolution, InvestorPlace advisor Matt McCall's 5G Highway Super Portfolio considers many facets to the movement that investors are overlooking. But these seven stocks in particular remain among the best 5G stocks to buy. 5G Stocks to Buy: Ericsson (ERIC)Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com One Huawei's major competitors in the 5G equipment space right now is this Sweden-based telecom firm.You may remember this company way back in the dotcom days (a whole 20 years ago!) when it was a juggernaut in setting up wireless networks around the globe and even offering some pretty popular mobile phones.After the dotcom bubble burst and the first wave of mobility was over and a number of companies saw opportunity in the sector and moved in, ERIC hung on for dear life. But now, Ericsson is again a leading 5G equipment provider, supporting 55 live 5G networks, in 27 countries, including China.ERIC stock is finally getting the attention it deserves, which means it's still one of the and it's up 35% in the past 12 months, near its 52-week high. There's plenty more growth to come. Samsung Electronics (SSNLF)Source: JPstock / Shutterstock.com There's little doubt that you haven't yet heard of this South Korea-based electronics giant.But it's not in this list because all of its mobile phones will be 5G-ready by the end of the year. Or that 90% of its phones will be Internet of Things (IoT) enabled.In fact, 5G is about much more than just faster mobile phone connectivity. It will enable the next steps in multiple technological revolutions, which is a large part of why identifying the best 5G stocks to buy is so important for today's investors.The biggest benefit of Samsung from a 5G perspective is its 5G chipsets. It is a massive chip maker.According to B2B networker BizVibe, Samsung is the largest semiconductor chipmaker by revenue in the world by a large margin. It has 44.8% of the global chip market, with Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) far behind in second place, with 15.5%.The fact is, Samsung makes chips for all its own devices as well as a lot of others. Its consumer electronics is its most obvious business but its dominance in chips is significant.And if its phones are all 5G enabled, it is also selling those chips to other phone makers.What's more, it also sells the networking equipment that makes 5G run. * 10 Small-Cap Stocks Ready to Become Large Caps SSNLF stock is a little more difficult to buy because it is only listed in South Korea, but its ADR is available and worth the trouble. SSNLF is up 33% in the past year and will be a strong player for many years to come. Digital Realty Trust (DLR)Source: Shutterstock This real estate investment trust (REIT) is one of the leaders in hosting secure, reliable and state of the art data center properties for cloud computing, artificial intelligence, financial services, healthcare and networking.In that laundry list you can include 5G networking equipment.DLR estimates that there will be 75 billion mobile phones in use by 2025. And by that point they will all be using 5G technology, which is 100x faster than current 4G technology. That's the difference between downloading a movie in 7 minutes with 4G, versus 10 seconds with 5G.That's a game changer. And DLR will be the company that carriers and networkers turn to for data centers that are ready for the coming 5G boom.With 280 data centers in 22 countries on 6 continents, Digital Realty Trust will be a major player.DLR stock is up 30% in the past year and still delivers a respectable 2.8% dividend. Corporate Office Properties (OFC)Source: Shutterstock This is another REIT that is in the office property and data center sectors, but it is less than a tenth of the market cap of DLR.However, it has a very specific niche that makes it a key 5G stock to consider. Specifically, it operates around the Washington, D.C. area to government agencies, defense and intelligence agencies and contractors.Its top 3 tenants include the General Services Administration (the U.S. government's real estate department) with 34% of total 2019 revenue, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) at 7.9% and General Dynamics (NYSE:GD) at 4.9%.That is the ideal tenant in today's market. What's more, working with the defense and intelligence communities means OFC can build out secure data centers to exactly the specifications that their clients' need and know that they'll get pricing to make it profitable.However, as McCall reminds us, 5G "road builders" like OFC, DLR and others on this list are just the tip of the iceberg. They will be among the power players in the 5G revolution, but the key players he identifies with his research team are the ones that will drive on that road for years to come with their breakthrough technologies. * The 7 Best 5G Stocks to Buy Now OFC stock is off 5% in the past year, but it delivers a 4% dividend. And many analysts are beginning to upgrade the stock in recent weeks. BCE (BCE)Source: madamF / Shutterstock.com Investors often look to telecom stocks like BCE for income. After all, telecoms often pay some of the largest dividends. But that's not the only way to find income. My book, Income for Life details more than 60 different revenue streams anyone can collect.While you sift over all of those unique ways to make money, I'd also like to change the way you view BCE stock. Instead of looking at it as just a telecom stock, imagine its role in our upcoming 5G future.It has been a dominant carrier for almost 40 years, it's a household name and it doesn't have a ton of competition.BCE is the Baby Bell of Canada. For those of you too young to remember, AT&T (aka, Ma Bell) dominated the entire North American phone market until it was broken up into the "Baby Bells" in 1984 through an anti-trust lawsuit.Bell Canada Enterprises was formed in 1983 and remains one of Canada's largest companies and a dominant player in the nation's telecommunications industry.And now it's set to be one of the key road builders in 5G networks. In June, it launched the largest 5G network in Canada. It's using equipment from Nokia (NYSE:NOK), so there won't be any trade issues with the U.S. or Europe regarding its 5G infrastructure in the future.BCE stock is off a bit over 7% in the past year, but it has a 5.7% dividend and will be a reliable and important telecom stock in the long term. AT&T (T)Source: Jonathan Weiss/Shutterstock Ma Bell was such a powerful force before its breakup that there was a movie in the early 1970s where it was simply called (tongue in cheek of course) The Phone Company.After the breakup, AT&T lost its local markets, but kept its international markets and national U.S. market. No one was thinking about mobile phones back then, so they weren't in the deal.The Baby Bells had a good run until the mobile wave hit. And then AT&T dove back in and became a dominant player almost immediately.Today it has a market cap of $212 billion and is one of the bluest blue chips around. But it also has a lot more competition. That's why it has diversified into content and streaming services.All this has been new to this traditional telecom and it has proven to be a bumpy ride. But this is a long-term play. * 7 Travel Stocks to Buy Banking On Pent-Up Demand T stock is off 13% in the past 12 months, but it has a secure dividend of nearly 7%. There are some near-term concerns about consumer belt-tightening and defaults, but it will endure. Verizon (VZ)Source: Ken Wolter / Shutterstock.com This company was one of the Baby Bells that flourished after the breakup. Bell Atlantic, as it was called operated in a very important corridor -- Virginia to New Jersey.That meant it had all the U.S. government, all the New York businesses and offices in New Jersey, as well as Philadelphia and other key Mid-Atlantic business and population hubs.When the mobile telecom revolution hit, it went on an acquisition spree buying up mobile territories where weaker Baby Bells couldn't afford to launch mobile divisions.Soon it was neck and neck with AT&T and optimizing its fiber optic network to deliver content which directly competed with cable providers.It now carries a $240 billion market cap, yet trades at a price-to-earnings ratio of 12x. And it's the No. 1 mobile carrier in the U.S.

U.S. Gains Ground in Effort to Freeze Huawei Out of 5G
- (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. campaign to hamstring China’s Huawei Technologies Co. is gaining fresh impetus as the Trump administration chokes off supplies of vital microchips and Beijing causes dismay on both sides of the Atlantic with its stance on Hong Kong and the coronavirus.The U.K. is reconsidering its embrace of Huawei while carriers in Denmark and Singapore have chosen other providers for their telecommunications networks. Meanwhile, Germany and France are reassessing the role of the company that the U.S. accuses of theft, sanctions busting and providing an avenue for espionage.Only months ago, the U.S. was struggling to persuade its allies not to use Huawei’s equipment. But in May, Washington moved to handcuff Huawei to outdated technology by denying it chips made with U.S. techniques. The change could turn Huawei into a permanent laggard, unable to update and maintain cutting-edge 5G networks that will be communications backbones for decades to come.At the same time, politics have been unkind to Huawei’s ambitions. Officials in Europe and the U.S. have criticized China over its handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. And Beijing drew condemnation for preparing national security laws for Hong Kong, a step seen as a threat to the city’s autonomy.“Two years ago no one worried about buying Huawei - that’s not true any more,” said James Lewis, director of the technology policy program at the Center for Strategic & International Studies in Washington. He sees “some progress,” in swaying other countries to ban Huawei “although well short of a total ban.”President Donald Trump is boasting of success, saying in a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, “Look how tough I’ve been on Huawei. Nobody has been tougher than me.”The U.S. says Huawei is a threat to security for the fifth-generation, or 5G, wireless systems that are beginning to be deployed around the world. The networks promise speed and ubiquity: a thick forest of always-on links to billions of devices in homes, factories, surgical suites and autonomous vehicles. As more and more devices and networks are connected, vulnerability to hacking or espionage grows apace.Because Huawei is subject to control by China’s ruling Communist Party, it can be compelled by law to cooperate with the country’s security apparatus, and has been implicated in espionage, according to the State Department. The Pentagon chimed in Wednesday, sticking Huawei on a list of 20 companies it says are owned or controlled by China’s military, opening them up to potential new US. sanctions.Rob Manfredo, a U.S.-based spokesman for Huawei, didn’t respond to a request for comment.Huawei has denied allegations of spying, saying it would lose customers if it weren’t trustworthy. The Shenzhen-based company says it’s a private business that can’t be directed by Beijing, and that no Chinese law requires private national companies to engage in cyber-espionage.Chip BanThe Commerce Department’s ban in May of the sale of any silicon made with U.S. know-how was a potentially crippling blow to China’s tech champion. Huawei’s stockpiles of certain self-designed chips essential to telecom equipment will run out by early 2021, people familiar with the matter have said. While Huawei can buy off-the-shelf or commodity mobile chips from a third party like Samsung Electronics Co., it couldn’t possibly get enough and may have to make costly compromises on performance in basic products, they added.The chip restrictions add “uncertainty and potential costs” that could leave Huawei unable to meet commitments to build and maintain networks, said Robert Williams, executive director of the Paul Tsai China Center at Yale Law School. “The trade-offs between cost and security risks may look different now than they once did to the U.K.”Huawei’s position is sharply contested in Britain.The U.K. in January barred Huawei from sensitive core network components and high-risk areas like nuclear-power sites, but said the Chinese company could still constitute as much as 35% of networks’ 5G and fiber equipment elsewhere.That prompted an angry phone call from Trump to U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson. The Trump administration has said any country that uses an “untrustworthy” 5G vendor jeopardizes intelligence sharing with the U.S. That would strike at the heart of the traditional “Five Eyes” security alliance linking the U.S. and U.K., along with Australia, Canada, and New Zealand to cooperate on espionage.The U.K.’s January decision also triggered a rebellion of junior lawmakers in Johnson’s Conservative Party. Since then, Hong Kong and Covid-19 have helped to harden their stance.U.K. government officials now are seeking ways to phase the company out in as little as three years.“There’s been a pretty effective relentless American campaign,” said Sam Armstrong, spokesman for the Henry Jackson Society, a London-based policy group that has argued for blocking Huawei from the U.K.’s 5G networks. “The evidence in Parliament and the threats to Five Eyes intelligence-sharing arrangements have all contributed to a sense that this has had a seriously undermining effect on our trans-Atlantic relationship.”Despite the storm clouds obscuring its future in the U.K., Huawei committed Thursday to invest $1.2 billion in a research and development center near the English city of Cambridge, drawing criticism from a former leader of the ruling Conservative party. It said the timing was coincidental and the plans had been in the works for years. Growing TensionThe issue is fraught in other European countries, too. The company is losing luster in Europe after winning contracts across the continent, said John Strand, a consultant based in Copenhagen.“Around Europe, there is a growing focus on the use of Chinese equipment including Huawei,” Strand said in an interview. “When it comes to Hong Kong, it obviously has an impact.”Strand predicted other countries would follow paths such as those taken by Denmark, where the biggest phone company TDC A/S in March chose Stockholm-based Ericsson AB to build its 5G network, rather that its existing supplier Huawei. Earlier, Energy Minister Lars Christian Lilleholt highlighted security considerations for 5G, without mentioning Huawei.Such moves would represent a change of momentum for a beleaguered U.S. campaign, said Justin Sherman, a fellow at the Atlantic Council’s cyber-statecraft initiative.“There are many countries that have not done what the U.S. wanted,” including Germany, France and Italy, Sherman said. “There’s legitimate reason to be concerned about Huawei’s position on the 5G networks,” he said.U.S. diplomats say Ericsson and Finland’s Nokia Oyj build 5G gear and can be alternatives to Huawei. The European providers have struggled to compete with Huawei and ZTE Corp. equipment that’s often cheaper and at least as capable.“5G systems carry the most private information and intellectual property. It comes down to one question: Who do you trust?” Keith Krach, the U.S. undersecretary of state for economic affairs, said in an interview. “People are realizing that Huawei’s 5G is the backbone of that surveillance state.”U.S. officials point to progress in persuading allies, citing the European Union’s January adoption of a policy that said companies based in non-democratic countries could be excluded from parts of the network. The EU stopped short of an outright ban on Huawei.The German government is struggling to settle on rules that would require security certification for vendors in the 5G network. Earlier senior Chinese officials highlighted German car companies – the crown jewel of Europe’s biggest economy – as a potential target for retaliation if Huawei is banned from their markets. China is the biggest single market for Volkswagen AG, BMW AG and Mercedes-Benz maker Daimler AG. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has resisted a blanket ban on Huawei from 5G networks.France won’t ban any equipment maker from its 5G network, but will seek to protect critical infrastructure, finance minister Bruno Le Maire said earlier this year. With a spectrum auction set for September, carriers including Bouygues SA await a decision from the French cyber security agency Anssi on whether Huawei can be part of their plans. In a tweet earlier this week, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo praised France’s leading phone company Orange SA, calling it a “clean” telecom carrier after it picked “trusted” 5G equipment suppliers Nokia and Ericsson in January.Italy hasn’t moved against Huawei, though it has adopted rules to closely monitor telecommunications equipment suppliers, and scrutinize gear that comes from outside Europe. Italy has pursued a friendly approach with Chinese investors and especially with Huawei, which has poured money into the country, financing research centers, universities and schools.In Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been stalling a decision on whether to ban Huawei from 5G wireless networks. Tensions between the two countries have been rising since Canadian authorities arrested Huawei Chief Financial Officer Meng Wanzhou on a U.S. extradition request in late 2018. After her arrest, China put two Canadian citizens in jail, halted billions of dollars in Canadian imports and put two other Canadians on death row. On June 2, two major Canadian wireless companies -- BCE Inc. and Telus Corp. -- said they’d build out their 5G wireless networks with equipment from Ericsson and Nokia.India has allowed Huawei to participate in trials, but the company’s entry into the country’s 5G commercial network could be blocked as tensions persist following border clashes with China. India is the largest wireless market outside China by number of subscribers, and has been a focus for investment by Huawei.

Huawei Snubbed by Canadian Firms Ahead of Trudeau’s Crucial 5G Call
- (Bloomberg) -- Two major Canadian wireless companies said they will build out their next-generation 5G wireless networks with equipment from European providers, sidelining China’s Huawei Technologies Co.Montreal-based BCE Inc. said that Ericsson AB will provide the radio access network equipment -- the critical antennas and base stations -- for its 5G network. Telus Corp. said in a separate statement that it has selected Ericsson and Nokia Oyj “to support building” its network, without elaborating.Those announcements come ahead of a closely watched -- and long overdue -- decision by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on whether to ban Huawei from participating in the nation’s 5G infrastructure amid deeply troubled relations with Beijing. Huawei previously played a large role in Canadian wireless networks but has faced growing national security concerns from Western governments.BCE would still consider working with Huawei if the government allows their participation in 5G, the Canadian company said in an e-mailed response to questions.The Trump administration has lobbied allies to ban Huawei 5G, saying its equipment would make networks vulnerable to exploitation by the Chinese government. Despite that, the U.K. said in January it would allow Huawei a limited role. In recent days, Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government has backtracked, saying it seeks to reduce reliance on the company’s technology and on China.Telus and BCE awarded Huawei its first major project in North America in 2008 -- a pivotal contract that helped cement the Chinese provider’s reputation as a global player that could compete on quality. The deal paved the way for it to become a major supplier to all three of Canada’s biggest telecom companies over the next decade.Stalling in OttawaThe Telus announcement comes as a particular surprise after Chief Financial Officer Doug French told the National Post in February that “we’re going to launch 5G with Huawei out of the gate” by the end of the year.Telus spokeswoman Donna Ramirez didn’t immediately respond to a question on whether the company’s announcement still leaves room for Huawei to participate in its 5G rollout. Huawei said in an emailed statement it looks forward to the federal government completing its 5G review and making an evidence-based decision about its role in helping build Canada’s next-generation wireless networks.Trudeau has stalled on whether to ban Huawei. Tensions between the two countries have been rising since Canadian authorities arrested Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou on a U.S. handover request in late 2018. After her arrest, China put two Canadian citizens in jail, halted billions of dollars in Canadian imports and put two other Canadians on death row.The extradition proceedings against Meng, the eldest daughter of the company’s billionaire founder, have pushed Canada’s relationship with its second-biggest trading partner into its worst state in decades. Beijing has accused Canada of abetting a U.S.-led “political persecution” against a national champion.(Updates eighth paragraph with statement from Huawei)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.
