and
Buy Verizon (VZ), Sprint (S), United States Cellular (USM)

Competitors AT&T, Verizon are overgrown and have poor customer service. I think there will be a migration towards smaller providers with proven customer service.

This met a high level screen to indicate a buy and strong outperform against its peers (other tickers in its industry). My 1st version of this spreadsheet devles deep into the company's balnace sheet and recent income statements, combined with other relevant price data for the company including insider/institutional holdings, short interest, debt levels, etc.
Testing capabilities of this 1st version of my automated, valuation spreadhseet matched with my personal criteria and see how it holds up.

UZG is a preferred stock of US Cellular, with a coupon of 8.75%. US Cellular is one of the leading cellular phone companies in the USA and is very customer friendly. They are constantly expanding their cellular network and, correspondingly, their customer base. I, myself, have used them for over 3 years, very satisfactorly!
