Stock Market

So I shoveled a pile into $VZ while I went hunting and fishing for the last few months... ya know, for the dividend, right?! well that and I might have been betting against the AI trade and future rate cuts yada yada yada. the sector does well when everything else turns downward. It hasn't paid off yet but all I really want is a positive 2% or another div-exe date! Then I can at least pay my tax bill for this year. Hope ya'll are doing well (better) happy hunting
Been awhile since playing the stock market but watched VZ for a good while.....think I did a bit of trading on them and it didn't amount to much. The majority of my money that got made was from the oil stocks and mainly XOM.
