Market Focus

Oct 09

On October 9, Verizon fell 4.3% in pre-market trading, with the stock trading at $43.6072 and turnover of $73,700.

The decline follows STARZ's announcement that Verizon decided to remove all STARZ channels, On Demand, and the app from its Fios platform after failing to reach a renewal agreement, raising concerns about pay-TV user retention and content ecosystem stability. In tandem, Scotiabank lowered its target price to $51.50 from $52.50, maintaining an outperform rating, while Arete Research cut its target to $62 from $71, maintaining a buy rating.

Within the Integrated Telecommunication Services sector, AT&T fell 5.34%, while Comcast, BCE, Telus, and KT Corp were unchanged.
