Verizon’s shares are not very volatile and have only had 3 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful, although it might not be something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. <\/p>\n
The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 3 months ago when the stock dropped 5.3% on the news that it was officially removed from the Dow Jones Industrial Average. VZ was replaced by Alphabet ending a decades-long membership. <\/p>\n
Also, in a regulatory filing, Verizon disclosed an estimated $700\u2013800 million second-quarter loss from reclassifying assets as held-for-sale in its new 50\/50 international joint venture with BT Group, plus $350\u2013450 million in severance and $200\u2013300 million in asset-rationalization charges.Lastly, the overhang from SpaceX’s Starlink direct-to-cell ambitions continued to weigh on the long-term competitive story. It is worth noting that the JV loss is a non-cash accounting reclassification tied to strategic streamlining, not a deterioration in the core business. Verizon recently raised FY2026 EPS guidance to roughly $4.95\u20134.99, beat in Q1, and yields ~6%. Analysts’ median target sits near $50, above the session price. <\/p>\n
Verizon is up 6.6% since the beginning of the year, but at $43.18 per share, it is still trading 16.1% below its 52-week high of $51.45 from September 2026. Despite the year-to-date gain, investors who bought $1,000 worth of Verizon’s shares 5 years ago would now be looking at only $827.62. <\/p>\n
