New Upleg Could Be Emerging for Silver Wheaton SLW / Companies / Company Chart Analysis
Silver Wheaton Corp. (SLW), a silver mining and sales company, appears technically to have ended a correction, which means a new upleg in its powerful bull market could be emerging.

The correction to date retraced about 40% of the prior upleg, which satisfies "healthy" parameters for a bull market pullback.

Telecom Stocks Dividend Yields / Companies / Telecoms
Those investors who are skeptical about dividends from the major telecoms AT&T (T) and Verizon (VZ), point to the declining wireline revenues as a factor putting the sales growth and dividend stream at risk. Clearly, telecoms don't have the utility-like stability of decades past, but we think fears are overstated.
