If anything it would make Sprint the cheaper stock to own in cellular which is an industry not likely to be going anywhere, even in times of recession.
My 4g concern though is why on earth would you own 54% of a 4g network and not just buy the other 46% out instead of building a 4g network from the ground up? Anybody know or hear of Sprints thinking on this? Seems rather moronic to me because infrastructure like that isn't going to be cheap. Surely cheaper to acquire Clearwire instead of taking your 54% stake AND spending out of pocket for a new network.
Because they are doing a project that will change networking in the L4g/LTE area. I can only say so much, but I am actually getting ready to start working on this project after I get done down here in New Mexico.
ATT and T-mobiles stuff will not do jack to Sprint and Verizon, and Sprint will not be going bankrupt anytime soon. If anything the ATT and T-mobile thing will make some customers leave, I know several people that are leaving because they do not like ATT, so I am holding on to all my S stocks, I even bought more when it hit 2.49 again the other day and this last week it started heading towards 3 dollar mark again, so hopefully it will keep going green.
