A Look Inside Crown Castle's Strategic Repositioning And Its Potential

  • Crown Castle's divestiture of small cells and fiber, CEO change, and dividend cut refocus the company on its core tower business and balance sheet improvement. While the AFFO outlook has improved, the current valuation offers little margin of safety, and the dividend yield is now less attractive after the recent cut. Rate cuts and 5G-driven tower demand are key future catalysts, but benefits will be industry-wide, not unique to CCI.

Disinflation Dividend: REIT Earnings Scorecard

  • A surprising solid REIT earnings season wrapped up this week. Of the 100 equity REITs that provide full-year FFO guidance, 62% raised their outlook - above the historical 55% average. Disinflation was a surprisingly common thread across second-quarter results, with the majority of the upside revisions being driven by improved expense expectations - the highest quantity of expense reductions ever. Healthcare REITs were notable upside standouts as senior housing fundamentals remained stellar, while skilled nursing REITs received some good news on the policy front via healthy CMS Medicare rate increases.

The ‘Sleep-Well-At-Night’ Portfolio: Monthly Income With Near-Zero Drama

  • This post may contain links from our sponsors and affiliates, and Flywheel Publishing may receive compensation for actions taken through them. With the NASDAQ 100 at a new all-time high and the S&P 500 challenging its record high, it’s getting easier for investors to sleep at night. That said, for those who were kept up at night this spring with President Trump’s tariff rhetoric in the lead-up to so-called Liberation Day — and the ensuing fallout in stock prices — I do think that it’s still worth considering some of the more defensive value names out there. Like it or not, a “tech winter” and market-wide correction will happen again, eventually, as part of natural market cycles. And it may not be met with a timely V-shaped recovery like the one we’ve been treated to since the market bottomed out back in April. In this piece, 24/7 Wall St. looks at a few monthly income plays that can help investors sleep soundly, even if tariffs, geopolitical tensions, the Fed or other concerns continue to weigh more heavily on investor sentiment as we enter the second half of 2025. So, if you’re in the market for a so-called SWAN (sleep well at night) portfolio, which has picked up traction with some Reddit posters on the r/dividends subreddit, the following two exchange-traded funds (ETFs) may be of interest to you. Key Points in This Article: SPHD offers a dividend currently yielding 3.44% and an attractive forward P/E multiple. BND offers a dividend currently yielding 3.75% and an exceptionally low expense ratio. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here. (Sponsor) Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (SPHD) Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (NYSEARCA:SPHD) is a fantastic way for passive investors to get a higher yield than the S&P 500 and a lower degree of volatility. Indeed, whenever you have fatter dividends and a lower correlation to the rest of the market, you have a stock that can be relied upon when stocks collectively fly south. With a below-average beta of 0.77 and an above-average yield of 3.44%, there’s a lot to love about the low-cost ETF, which, I think, is incredibly underrated. What kind of stocks and REITs comprise the SCHD ETF? The REITs, utilities, and consumer staples comprise close to 55% of the portfolio. Indeed, these are sectors that tend to naturally sport lower betas and higher yields. With names such as Crown Castle (NYSE:CCI) and Verizon (NYSE:VZ) among the top holdings (I’ve praised both dividend plays in prior pieces), I do view the defensive ETF as a fine choice for those looking to construct a “SWAN” portfolio while the price of admission is cheap, with the SCHD shares only recently falling into correction territory. Finally, the SCHD has a very reasonable 14.7 times forward price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple, making it magnitudes cheaper than the S&P 500. Though the management fee of 0.30% is higher than your run-of-the-mill S&P 500 ETF, I think the slightly higher fee is worth paying up for, given the unique exposure you’ll get and the likely limited downside come the next market-wide spill. Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (BND) If you really want a great night’s rest, adding some bond exposure to your portfolio may be a good idea. The Vanguard Total Bond Market Index Fund (NASDAQ:BND) is a go-to for those who want simplicity and broad diversification across the investment-grade U.S. bond market. With a monthly payout and a rock-bottom expense ratio (0.03%), the BND is an easy buy for those looking to beef up the bond portion of their portfolio. At the time of this writing, the BND sports a 3.75% yield, which is pretty standard these days. For investors seeking to minimize fees and spread bets across a wide range of maturities, perhaps there is no better one-stop shop to pick up for the summer. While the BND won’t juice your returns, it can help you worry less about your portfolio once the stock market encounters its next big rough patch. As always, younger investors, even those who are easily started, should have a preference for stocks over bonds. Either way, a small amount in bonds, cash and even CDs is never a bad idea, especially for those who have a lower tolerance for risk.

Ongoing Sprint lease churn and management uncertainty, including a CEO search, add risk and limit near-term growth prospects.

I Finally Reached $1 Million – Here’s How I Earned $4,000 a Month from My Investments

  • The million-dollar milestone is viewed by many as enough to achieve financial independence and even retirement. Despite inflation’s toll on the value of the dollar, such a sum is still respectable, even if it’s not quite enough to fund an early, comfortable retirement in a major city. Sure, $1 million isn’t what it used to be, but it’s still a lot of money. And it can finance a pretty good retirement lifestyle for those who maintain a budget and have limited liabilities and few, if any, dependents. In this piece, we’ll look into the case of a newly minted millionaire investor who’s invested their funds with passive income in mind. They’ve managed to put their $1 million to work for them, and it’s reportedly pulling in a colossal $4,000 per month, which works out to $48,000 per year. Indeed, that’s enough for many careful budgeters to retire young and in perpetuity. But is the individual taking on too much risk by reaching farther for yield? Let’s find out. Key Points This Reddit user has a good amount of income coming in from their yield-focused million-dollar portfolio. The SCHD and JEPI ETFs do the heavy lifting, while a slew of individual high-yielders act as an amusing supporting cast. Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) A $1 million portfolio. How’s it positioned such that it pulls in $4,000 per year? To earn $4,000 per year in dividends, a $1 million portfolio would have to average a yield of 4.8%. That’s completely achievable in today’s higher-rate environment. With a balanced mix of dividend-focused ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds), covered call ETFs for a yield boost, and some individual higher-yielding blue-chip stocks, this individual has pulled it off, a $4,000 per-month income stream that’s well-balanced and seems to manage risk quite well. What’s at the core of the portfolio? More than $450,000 in one single ETF: the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD), a fantastic selection for the bedrock of someone’s yield-oriented portfolio. The current yield sits at 3.72%, which is more than a percentage point shy of the 4.8% target yield their portfolio needs. So, the other half of the portfolio will need to pull a bit more than its fair share in weight to get the yield in the appropriate target range. Unsurprisingly, the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income (NYSEARCA:JEPI) ETF comprises a huge chunk of their portfolio, currently valued at just north of $200,000. Indeed, if there’s an ETF that can do the heavy lifting for the yield, it’s the JEPI, which is a covered call ETF that boasts a yield just shy of 7.5%. The JEPI is incredibly popular among American investors looking to raise their yield without raising their risk by a similar magnitude. As volatility surges off the charts, as it has been doing since Donald Trump’s Liberation Day tariff announcement, there’s an opportunity to profit from the choppiness, as options premiums rise. In any case, I think the JEPI is a fantastic portfolio diversifier and yield carrier for anyone looking to retire off dividends, rather than drawing down from one’s principal. What about the supporting cast of this yield-heavy portfolio? The SCHD and JEPI comprise close to two-thirds of the portfolio, leaving the remainder to individual dividend names, many of which pack a punch when it comes to yield. With names like Verizon (NYSE:VZ), which currently yields 6.3%, Crown Castle (NYSE:CCI) with a 5.9% yield, and Pepsi (NASDAQ:PEP) with a 4.1% yield, the individual-stock section of the portfolio isn’t just dividend-rich, it’s quite lowly-correlated to the broad market! In any case, it should come as no surprise that the stock has held up like a steady rock amid the latest sell-off that’s primarily been concentrated in higher-multiple tech stocks. While the individual names have robust dividends that can prop up the portfolio’s overall yield, I’m certainly not against concentrating more on the SCHD and JEPI, which are the stars of this million-dollar portfolio. The bottom line While the yield approach is the right fit for this individual, retirees should think more about total returns (dividends and capital gains) and perhaps think more about withdrawal rates, so they’re not limited to low-growth high-yielders that may struggle to sustain growth in the long haul. At the end of the day, thinking in terms of withdrawal rates instead of dividend yield can itself pay dividends over the long run!

As a turbulent first quarter wraps up, the updated GDPNow - the Atlanta Fed's closely watched GDP tracking model - forecasts growth of -2.8% overall and -0.5% on a "gold-adjusted basis."

State Of REITs: The 'Dark Age' Is Over

  • While the S&P 500 and other major benchmarks entered "correction territory" this month for the first time since 2023, U.S. REITs have meaningfully outperformed the broader equity market since mid-January. The rebound follows a truly forgettable three-year period for REITs dating back to the start of the Fed's rate hiking cycle in which REITs have accumulated 40 percentage-points of underperformance. REITs remain as unloved as ever: The number of publicly listed REITs declined for a fourth-straight year in 2024. As an asset class, REITs are the single-largest "underweight" among institutional investors.

Disappointing retail sales data indicated that economic uncertainty is beginning to affect real-world consumer behavior.

Crown Castle: A Buy With $140 Price Target After Solid Quarter

The sale of the Fiber segment due in 2026, though at a disappointing valuation, aims to simplify the business, reduce debt, and fund share repurchases and dividends.

Crown Castle's $8.5 Billion Sale May Be A Mistake

Despite a slight revenue beat, Crown Castle's Q4 2024 results showed declines in key segments and a significant goodwill impairment charge, leading to a downgrade from 'strong buy' to 'buy'. The asset sale will reduce debt and fund a share buyback, but the proceeds are disappointing, and the stock will appear more expensive post-transaction.

Losers Of REIT Earnings Season

  • In Part 3 of our Earnings Recap, we present a sector-by-sector breakdown of the Losers of REIT Earnings Season, discussing incremental positives/negatives and noting the individual standouts. Commercial Mortgage REITs were the "biggest loser" of REIT earnings season after results showed ongoing problems in the office space and a significant deterioration in multifamily bridge loan performance. Results from Hotel REITs were also disappointing given the record-levels of travel demand, as margin pressures from higher labor costs have taken a sizable bite out of bottom-line profitability.

Tariff Turbulence

  • US equity markets tumbled this week - suffering its worst week in six months - as disappointing employment reports and fast-shifting tariff policy failed to improve skittish investor sentiment. Reminiscent of Fed Chair Powell's infamous August 2022 "some pain ahead" speech, the Trump Administration warned of a "little disturbance" and a necessary "detox period" for the U.S. economy. Softer-than-expected employment data this week fueled doubts that sweeping overhauls to trade policy and fiscal spending can be accomplished without risking a recession.

The Atlanta Fed's updated growth forecast indicated a -1.5% contraction in first-quarter GDP, while PCE data showed the first monthly decline in personal spending in nearly two years. Buoyed by the interest rate retreat, real estate equities were also a notable source of strength this week as REIT earnings season wrapped up with a surprisingly solid slate of results.

Bad Vibes, Positive Results

  • US equity markets slumped this week - while benchmark interest rates tumbled to two-month lows - after downbeat economic data and cautious corporate commentary sparked concern over slowing economic growth. Compounded by some unsettling COVID-related headlines late in the week, investors adopted a more "risk off" position after consumer and business survey data picked up a sudden negative sentiment shift. After notching a pair of record-highs early in the week, a two-day tumble sent the S&P 500 lower by 1.6% on the week. Small-Caps and Mid-Caps both dipped over 3%.

Snapping a two-week losing streak, the S&P 500 rebounded by 1.5%, closing fractionally below its prior record-high set in late January. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 rallied nearly 3%.

'Tis The Season For REIT Dividends

  • U.S. equity markets climbed to fresh record-highs while benchmark interest rates dipped sharply, as investors parsed inflation data and deliberated the potential implementation and impacts of Trump Administration policies. Markets cheered the nomination of Scott Bessent for US Treasury Secretary, reflecting expectations that the implementation of hawkish trade and immigration policies would consider the impacts on U.S. financial markets.

A Decisive Realignment

  • U.S. equity markets soared to record highs this week after President-elect Trump scored a surprisingly decisive election victory, including a likely "trifecta" of Republican legislative control in Congress. The outcome sparked powerful moves across global financial markets as investors priced in a combination of domestic-focused and "pro-growth" economic policies but also reflected concern over deficits and immigration policy. Characteristic of the "Trump trade" dynamic, smaller-cap companies led the surge, outperforming mega-cap technology and international-heavy peers. The S&P Small-Cap 600 soared 9%, outpacing 5% gains from the S&P 500.

My Portfolio's Biggest Winners And Losers From A Republican Sweep

  • The election's swift resolution led to a sharp market reaction; S&P 500 rose ~4.5%, but REITs were weighed down by rising Treasury rates. Trump's victory is seen as inflationary, benefiting REIT fundamentals by suppressing new construction starts due to higher interest rates. My portfolio saw significant movements post-election, with regional banks and energy stocks gaining, while renewables and healthcare REITs faced short-term declines.
  • 11/09/2024

Pivotal Decisions

  • Ahead of a pivotal week of consequential decisions, U.S. equity markets posted a second-straight week of declines as investors parsed a relatively disappointing slate of employment and inflation data. The pivotal Nonfarm Payrolls report showed that the U.S. economy added just 12k jobs in October - the weakest month since 2020 - with notably weaker trends under the surface. Private employment declined by 28k during the month, fueled by the largest plunge in manufacturing employment since the pandemic shutdown, alongside job declines in retail, transportation, and hospitality.

Brace For Volatility

  • U.S. equity markets snapped a six-week winning streak, while benchmark interest rates surged to three-month highs as investors braced for a volatile two-week stretch of market-moving events. Another surprisingly solid slate of domestic economic data - highlighted by improved jobless claims and consumer sentiment reports - lifted the U.S. Economic Surprise Index to the highest-level since April. Retreating from record-highs, the S&P 500 finished lower by 1% on the week, declining for just the second time in the past twelve weeks. Rate-sensitive segments and small-caps were laggards.

Rates Down, REITs Up

  • Rates down, REITs up? Two years of persistent rate-driven pressure on residential and commercial real estate markets appears to finally be abating as the worst of pandemic-era inflationary pressures subside. Since the "pivot' in early July, the REIT Index has outpaced the S&P 500 by 10 percentage points. Despite this rebound, REITs still have 35 percentage points of "catch-up" to do. REITs aren't quite as "cheap" now as they were at the end of June, but that's not such a bad thing: premium equity valuations are the "fuel" for REITs' external growth.

Crown Castle: Dividend Underpinned By Strong Fundamentals And Secular Growth

  • Crown Castle, a U.S. equity REIT, is an attractive investment opportunity due to its robust fundamentals, including a strong balance sheet, a target of 7-8% annual dividend growth, and exposure to long-term tailwinds in the data and connectivity segment. Despite underperforming the overall equity REIT market by 46% in the past three years, CCI's assets are all based in the U.S., making it immune to foreign exchange risk and regulatory uncertainties. Its predictable income streams and defensive characteristics make it an appealing investment. The company's focus on the small cell segment, which is expected to benefit from increased demand as 5G networks replace 3G and 4G, and its ambitious capital expenditure plans for 2023, further strengthen its position.

(NYSE: CCI) ("Crown Castle") today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 and maintained its full year 2020 Outlook, with the exception of a reduction to net income.(in millions, except per share amounts)Midpoint of Current Full Year 2020 OutlookFull Year 2019 Actual% ChangePrevious Full Year 2020 Outlook(c)Current Compared to Previous Outlook Site rental revenues$5,360$5,093+5%$5,360$— Net income (loss)$943$860+10%$1,038-$95 Net income (loss) per share—diluted(a)$2.09$1.79+17%$2.32-$0.23 Adjusted EBITDA(b)$3,502$3,299+6%$3,502$— AFFO(a)(b)$2,595$2,371+9%$2,595$— AFFO per share(a)(b)$6.12$5.68+8%$6.12$— (a) Attributable to CCIC common stockholders. (b) See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures, Segment Measures and Other Calculations" included herein for further information and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss). (c) As issued on April 29, 2020."In the second quarter, we generated solid results that were in line with our expectations as our business continues to perform well during this period of unprecedented uncertainty," stated Jay Brown, Crown Castle’s Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to anticipate a significant increase in industry activity in the second half of this year as our carrier customers invest to improve their existing networks and as 5G investments ramp. Although the full rebound in overall industry activity on towers is taking a bit more time to materialize than we previously expected, we remain on track to generate at least 7% growth in AFFO per share this year. Looking beyond this year, I am excited about what will likely be another decade-long investment cycle for our customers with the deployment of 5G, and see the potential for our AFFO per share growth to improve next year."We believe our ability to offer towers, small cells and fiber solutions, which are all integral components of communications networks and are shared among multiple tenants, provides us the best opportunity to generate significant growth while delivering high returns for our shareholders. We believe that the U.S. represents the best market in the world for communications infrastructure ownership, and we are pursuing that compelling opportunity with our comprehensive offering. As we look forward, I am excited about the opportunity we see for Crown Castle to deliver long-term value to our shareholders while delivering dividend per share growth of 7% to 8% per year. Over the past several weeks, we have had the opportunity to engage with many of our shareholders. We have appreciated the thoughtful exchange of ideas during those discussions as well as the feedback they have given us. During these conversations, we heard two consistent points of investor feedback: they want more visibility into how our strategy and business are performing and they would like us to make certain improvements to our corporate governance practices. To address this feedback, we will discuss some increased disclosure around our small cell and fiber strategy during our earnings call tomorrow and, as we disclosed in a separate press release today, we are making changes to our corporate governance."RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER The table below sets forth select financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019.(in millions, except per share amounts)Q2 2020Q2 2019Change% Change   (As Restated)(c)   Site rental revenues$1,319$1,263+$56+4% Net income (loss)$200$216-$16-7% Net income (loss) per share—diluted(a)$0.41$0.45-$0.04-9% Adjusted EBITDA(b)$831$827+$4—% AFFO(a)(b)$609$589+$20+3% AFFO per share(a)(b)$1.45$1.41+$0.04+3% (a) Attributable to CCIC common stockholders. (b) See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures, Segment Measures and Other Calculations" included herein for further information and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss). (c) See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 for further information.HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE QUARTER * Site rental revenues. Site rental revenues grew approximately 4.4%, or $56 million, from second quarter 2019 to second quarter 2020, inclusive of approximately $69 million in Organic Contribution to Site Rental Revenues and a $13 million decrease in straight-lined revenues. The $69 million in Organic Contribution to Site Rental Revenues represents approximately 5.6% growth, comprised of approximately 9.4% growth from new leasing activity and contracted tenant escalations, net of approximately 3.8% from tenant non-renewals. * Capital Expenditures. Capital expenditures during the quarter were $414 million, comprised of $24 million of sustaining capital expenditures and $390 million of discretionary capital expenditures. Discretionary capital expenditures included approximately $295 million attributable to Fiber, approximately $88 million attributable to Towers, and approximately $7 million attributable to Other. * Common stock dividend. During the quarter, Crown Castle paid common stock dividends of approximately $500 million in the aggregate, or $1.20 per common share, an increase of approximately 7% on a per share basis compared to the same period a year ago. * Financing Activity. In April, Crown Castle issued $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, with a combination of 10-year and 30-year maturities, resulting in a weighted average maturity and coupon of 18 years and approximately 3.6%, respectively. Net proceeds from the offering were used to repay outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility.  In June, Crown Castle issued $2.5 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, with a combination of 5-year, 10-year and 30-year maturities, resulting in a weighted average maturity and coupon of 16 years and approximately 2.4%, respectively. In July, net proceeds from the offering were used to retire $2.4 billion of senior unsecured notes in the aggregate, resulting in a $95 million loss on the retirement of debt. After giving effect to the refinancing of the outstanding senior unsecured notes, Crown Castle had approximately $18.9 billion of total debt outstanding."We are excited about the significant network investments our customers are pursuing as they deploy 5G, and how well we are positioned with our comprehensive infrastructure offering across towers and fiber to meet our customers’ needs and create significant value for our shareholders," stated Dan Schlanger, Crown Castle's Chief Financial Officer. "By opportunistically accessing the investment grade bond market twice in recent months, we further strengthened our balance sheet by extending the maturity of our debt and reducing our cost of capital. We believe our liquidity position is strong with nearly $5 billion of undrawn capacity on our revolving credit facility and no meaningful debt maturities until 2022, providing us with confidence that we are well positioned to navigate the current environment while investing in assets that we believe will add to long-term growth in dividends per share."OUTLOOKThis Outlook section contains forward-looking statements, and actual results may differ materially. Information regarding potential risks which could cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements herein is set forth below and in Crown Castle's filings with the SEC.The following table sets forth Crown Castle's current Outlook for full year 2020, which remains unchanged from the previous full year 2020 Outlook with the exception of a reduction to net income due to the $95 million loss on the retirement of debt in July:(in millions)Full Year 2020 Site rental revenues$5,337to$5,382 Site rental cost of operations(a)$1,482to$1,527 Net income (loss)$903to$983 Adjusted EBITDA(b)$3,479to$3,524 Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs(c)$691to$736 FFO(b)(d)$2,354to$2,399 AFFO(b)(d)$2,572to$2,617 Weighted-average common shares outstanding - diluted424 (a) Exclusive of depreciation, amortization and accretion.

The 5 Best 5G Stocks on the Market Today for Investors

  • Just a few months ago, 5G was the market catalyst on every investor's mind. But when the novel coronavirus started to grab the headlines, the promise of a revamped mobile network took a backseat. To be sure, coronavirus news appears to be leading the charge when it comes to movement on the stock market. That being said, however, choosing a few 5G stocks to buy during this downturn is a good way to hedge for the future. The beneficiaries in the 5G space come from many different areas. From network providers to chipmakers, there are a lot of sectors that look poised to profit from the introduction of 5G. * 7 Red-Hot Vaccine Stocks Racing to Develop a Coronavirus Cure With all of that in mind, here's a look at five companies that should ride the 5G wave this year:InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips * Skyworks Solutions (NASDAQ:SWKS) * AT&T; (NYSE:T) * Nokia (NYSE:NOK) * Crown Castle (NYSE:CCI) * Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL)So, let's dive in. 5G Stocks to Buy: Skyworks Solutions (SWKS)Source: madamF / Shutterstock.com One of my favorite picks for 5G is Skyworks Solutions, a semiconductor firm headquartered in Irvine, California.The firm suffered some coronavirus-related pain when it released its fiscal second-quarter results. Like the rest of its peers, management had to downshift its expectations for the current quarter and was unable to offer long-term predictions.However, Skyworks Solutions does in fact have a bright long-term future. While tension between the U.S. and China does offer a potential roadblock, Skyworks' business with Huawei has been hurt by the trade war which could continue to weigh on the firm's future revenue. That said, if Skyworks is able to secure a deal with Samsung to supply the phone maker with 5G chips, it could help offset some of the Huawei pain. Additionally, Skyworks also has a solid relationship with Apple, which should continue to pay off as the firm rolls out new iPhone versions. Plus, Skyworks is carrying no long-term debt and has cultivated a sound cash pile. That's going to be essential for the firm to get through the coronavirus crisis during the current quarter, and makes SWKS stock a much safer investment than some of its heavily-leveraged peers. AT&T; (T)Source: Lester Balajadia / Shutterstock.com Another beneficiary of the 5G revolutions is T stock. AT&T; has an impressive future plan that could put the telecom giant at the top of the pack if management is able to execute. The firm's wireless business has been booming, even offering a revenue increase in the first quarter despite the pandemic. As far as future growth, the firm is banking on a huge 5G rollout this summer, at which time current customers are likely to buy new devices in order to access the faster speeds. Plus, AT&T; is finally putting its strategic acquisitions to good use with a new streaming service -HBO Max -- that launched this past Wednesday.Moreover, the firm has said 5G is "transforming the future" -- likely a nod to the firm's extensive plans to create an ecosystem in which customers can bundle their streaming service together with their wireless network. The advertising potential from that kind of ecosystem is incredible. * 7 Low-Rated Stocks to Sell Before They Drag You Down So while AT&T; offers a compelling buy-case, it's important to note that the firm is highly leveraged after the past few years of transforming itself. In turn, this is not the best-case scenario when you're marching into a stark economic downturn. However, if you're willing to take on that risk, T stock looks like one of the best 5G stocks to buy. Nokia (NOK)Source: RistoH / Shutterstock.com Nokia has had a rough year, as the firm muddled its way through the U.S.-China trade war and was then hit once again by the coronavirus pandemic. It's been a long time since investors were confident in the direction of NOK stock. But with the introduction of 5G on the horizon, Nokia looks like it could be a winning supplier.Nokia's first-quarter results were impressive, as the firm brokered 70 commercial 5G deals and installed 21 live networks. What's more, the firm didn't see demand wane at all in Q1 despite the challenges presented by coronavirus. Q2 is a different story, though, as CEO Rajeev Suri cautioned that the large-scale shutdowns would have an impact on the company's results. However, it's expected to make a solid recovery and finish the year strong.Moreover, Raymond James analyst Simon Leopold says Nokia offers the potential of better returns because of its depressed share price. Although, he admitted it's not quite as safe as competitors like LM Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC):"I do think that Ericsson has executed better and is ahead in technology and therefore is a better company for 5G. Nokia has made mistakes, and they've upset customers and they're behind. That said, I think an investor can make a bigger return investing in Nokia than in Ericsson…But we like both of these companies because of the 5G theme."That said, Leopold gives NOK stock a $5.50 price target -- suggesting a nearly 40% upside from where shares are trading today. Crown Castle (CCI)Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com Tower REITs that rent out the infrastructure and space that wireless firms need to roll out a new network are another way to capitalize on 5G stocks. And while there are a few players in the industry, Crown Castle has a compelling value proposition because of its position in the U.S. market.Oppenheimer's Timothy Horan named CCI stock as a good 5G pick, fining the firm an "outperform" rating with a $175 price target. Horan noted that CCI is uniquely positioned because of the firm's focus on small cells, which are able to support more data. * 3 Social Media Stocks to Trade Out of the Covid-19 Crisis He sees the market for small cells growing from 100,000 to 1 million in the US, a compelling reason to consider CCI stock:"We expect small cells will eventually cover half the U.S. population, or 160 million people. This would be more than 1 million small cells in the U.S., up from about 100,000 today and about 250,000 macro cell sites." Apple (AAPL)Source: View Apart / Shutterstock.com Buying Apple stock isn't exactly a pure-play on the 5G revolution, but it offers investors a way to play the trend without jumping in headfirst. Apple stands to make a lot of money in the coming years as people upgrade their devices in order to make them 5G compatible. That said, Apple's upcoming iPhone model is expected to see a surge in demand as early adopters switch out their phones.Additionally, Apple has created a recurring revenue model that allows people to pay a subscription fee in order to continuously upgrade their phones. This method is a good way to ensure there's always money coming through the door. And with that, the leap from 4G to 5G is going to be a compelling reason for more people to sign up for the program.However, if 5G isn't the boom investors are expecting it to be, Apple is a safe pick because of its solid business and iron-clad financials. The company has enough cash to get through almost anything, which should give investors some comfort during uncertain times. Therefore, it makes the cut among 5G stocks because the new network will offer a powerful incentive for users to upgrade their phones over the next few quarters.Laura Hoy has a Finance degree from Duquesne University and has been writing about financial markets for the past 8 years.

7 5G Stocks to Buy for the Future of Telecom

  • 5G or fifth-generation telecom promises huge changes in the way we interact with technology. For investors, this means it's time to think about 5G stocks.5G will not only be faster, but it will provide more bandwidth. This means that we, and the companies that provide us with data, can provide more data simultaneously.If I can lean on the analogy of water through a hose -- not only will the water move faster through the hose, but the hose will also increase in size. This is going to mean that wireless connections will be as fast, and in some places faster, than the available wireline services.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsIt will mean technologies like smart cars and everything provided through cloud services will be accessed in near real time, wherever you are. It will also change providers' ability to share content like movies, games or teleconferences. Along the way, the companies facilitating all of this could see enormous upside in their share prices. * 7 Red-Hot Vaccine Stocks Racing to Develop a Coronavirus Cure And the seven 5G stocks looking to the future that I feature below are laying the tracks for the next telecom expansion across the U.S. and the world. * Ciena (NYSE:CIEN) * Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) * Lumentum (NASDAQ:LITE) * American Tower REIT (NYSE:AMT) * Crown Castle International (NYSE:CCI) * Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) * Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN) 5G Stocks to Buy: Ciena (CIEN)Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com This optical networking firm has been around since 1992. It's been around so long, it's headquartered in quiet Hanover, Maryland, since Silicon Valley was just glimmer in geeks' eyes back then.It was way ahead of its time. It specializes in optical networking equipment. The thing was, back then, fiber optic cable was as scarce as hen's teeth. It was a play on the future of the internet.Before the tech bubble burst, CIEN stock traded as high as $847 a share. But those were the days when brokers were telling clients that growth was the new income and a growth stock wasn't respectable if it didn't have a triple-digit price-earnings ratio.But CIEN made it through, which is testament to its management and its technology. Now, 20 years later, it is one of the leading companies in the vibrant and expanding optical networking space.The stock is up 56% in the past 12 months and 28% year to date. Yet, it still only trades at a P/E of 30. Intel (INTC)Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com The computer you're using to read this likely has an Intel chip or two inside it. It's the largest semiconductor company in the world and invented the x86 chip that sits in almost every personal computer. And next month it will celebrate its 51st birthday.Intel has had its struggles remaining at the top of the chip heap. Management didn't get in the mobility sector until it was too late, and missed a huge opportunity in the smartphone world. But it is well-positioned in the internet of things (IOT), and has found opportunities in markets like 5G, AI, memory and networking as well.The competition is tough. CEO Bob Swan is an industry veteran but not a career Intel guy, and he took over in January 2019. Much of his leadership career was operating as a CFO for various large tech firms, so it will be interesting to see if he can keep INTC moving in the right directions. * 7 Cheap Stocks to Buy With Great Potential So far, so good. The stock is up 42% in the past year and 3% year to date. It also delivers a solid 2.1% dividend. And besides INTC itself, the 5G upgrade offers investors the chance to buy potentially the "next Intel" today. Lumentum (LITE)Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com This company is also in the optical networking sector, but it launched just five years ago. And instead of focusing on the optical switching aspects, LITE focuses on the distribution and transmission of fiber optic networks.It also makes a variety of lasers for numerous applications. The lasers are used to build equipment in industries as varied as the automotive sector to mobile phones and semiconductors. And they are used for 3D sensing equipment.Just as cloud computing ultimately needs real hardware to operate, mobile networks need the fastest data transmission possible. And for now, that's fiber optic cables.That means that the greater the global demand for 5G, the more business LITE stands to gain. Also, the more we rely on advanced technologies, the more demand there will be to build more advance devices.The stock is up 72% in the past year and is off 9% year to date. American Tower REIT (AMT)Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.com As you well know, mobile signals need mobile transmission towers. AMT is one of the top tower companies in the world, and it's one of the top 5G stocks to buy.It has operations across North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa and Asia. Since towers are property, AMT became a real estate investment trust (REIT), which has tax advantages for the company and the shareholders. All REITs consider shareholders direct owners and distribute net income via a dividend.5G is going to need towers because its antenna are different than previous generations of telecom services. Given the fact that AMT already has more than 180,000 towers around the world, and a solid history as a reliable partner, it's well positioned for the 5G wave.It continues to acquire smaller broadcast companies around the globe, including India and Africa, where mobile telecom is much denser than traditional wireline services. * 25 Stocks to Buy for the Reopening Rally The stock is up 27% in the past year and 12% year to date. It also provides a 1.7% dividend. It's among my top stocks for the worldwide 5G upgrade taking hold now. Crown Castle International (CCI)Source: Casimiro PT / Shutterstock.com This is another tower company, but it has two difference from AMT. First, it focuses its operations on the U.S., where it has over 40,000 towers.Second, it also has a significant small cells business for denser spots like office buildings and stadiums, as well as more than 80,000 miles of fiber optic cable. These are key sectors for 5G stocks because 5G has unique challenges in cities, and venues like stadiums will have growing challenges as events become carried on live streams and guests will be sharing across social media.CCI is also a REIT and is delivering an impressive 3% dividend currently. The stock is up 34% in the past 12 months, and 19% year to date.Owning both AMT and CCI stock captures a significant amount of the potential 5G transmission sector, but both stocks are trading at premiums currently. Qualcomm (QCOM)Source: JHVEPhoto / Shutterstock.com This telecom chipmaker has been around since 1985 and has been a major player in the mobility revolution. Its origins were building out CDMA telecom technology for commercial trucking operations. When mobile phones came out, one of the leading channels used for phones in the U.S. became CDMA.Now, CDMA and GSM run all the phones around the world and most chips can switch from one channel to the other if necessary.QCOM makes more money on licensing its patents than it does on actually shipping chips. That means it doesn't have to build massively expensive chip plants, and focuses on design rather than production.However, Qualcomm has run into antitrust issues. A few years ago it had to pay out massive fines to China and other countries that sued it because of its monopolistic hold on mobile phone infrastructure.But those days are behind it, and it is certainly going to be a major player as 5G starts to roll out globally.The stock is up 20% in the past year and off almost 12% year to date. It has an impressive 3.2% dividend and is trading at a reasonable P/E of 23. Texas Instruments (TXN)Source: Katherine Welles / Shutterstock.com Many people remember TXN as the company that built the coolest calculators around. And the fact is, it continues to make the default calculators for most high school students.But Texas Instruments, which has been around since 1930, is also one of the biggest chipmakers in the world. Nearly 80% of its revenue comes from analog chips and embedded processors. Analog chips convert analog inputs -- like voice -- into digital form for processing. And embedded processors are dedicated systems that provide a function within a larger piece of equipment or system. Think a sound system inside a car.These aren't sexy, but they are everywhere. And TXN can produce high-quality, reliable chips and processors in huge quantities. With everything going digital, that means TXN is in a growth business and is already producing at scale, and making money doing it.Not every aspect of our digital lives has to be built from cutting-edge designs; keeping some things simple makes high-performance equipment easier to maintain and more reliable. And TXN is certainly keeping up with the biggest trends, including 5G, but it is a significant supporting player, not a headliner.The stock is up nearly 14% in the past 12 months, and off 10% year to date. It also offers a durable and generous 3% dividend.Texas Instruments and other hardware makers I've mentioned here today are great examples of 5G stocks that stand to benefit from the 5G revolution.And I see even better potential with the companies that are making this massive infrastructure upgrade possible in the first place! The 5G Buildout Is an Incredible Opportunity for Investors Right NowWithin two years, most cell phones will be 5G enabled and be able to wirelessly handle television streaming. With 5G, we'll have cable modem speeds on any device; no need to plug in. That's a big deal for rural areas … the very same areas that are also key to President Donald Trump's reelection.

9 Best REITs to Buy for COVID-19 Protection

  • The real estate sector has, simply put, been a loser in 2020.Real estate investment trusts (REITs), which own and operate various types of properties and facilities, are off nearly 11% versus a 6% decline for the S&P; 500\. But there's a world of difference separating the sector's best REITs and its worst.Much of the pain in real estate has come courtesy of retail-focused companies, many of which have lost more than 50% of their value as investors correctly surmised that stay-at-home orders would minimize shopping trips and curtail customer spending. Office REITs have experienced outsized struggles, too, as shuttered businesses are unable to pay rents, and as large-scale work-from-home strategies have investors rethinking the future of office space.Not every REIT sector has been equally affected, however. Some REITs are riding out the pandemic shutdowns relatively unscathed - and some are even benefiting from the recent sea changes.However, while defensive business models are an important characteristic to have when determining REITs to buy, other qualities should be considered, too. Solid balance sheets are a must. Conservative payouts, which leave room for dividends to be easily covered in the event of a shock, and raised in the future when all is well, are ideal, too.Here are nine of the best REITs to buy not just for their durable businesses, but also their financial strength and dividend coverage.
