Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ)

When I started investing in VZ, I thought Verizon and AT&T were technology stocks,
but they are really utility stocks.
I use to own VZ stocks, but I sold my shares in early 2018.
I sold it because it's slow-growth.
I even use Verizon for the phone service, however, I will switch it soon.
Utility stocks are little growth that gives a big dividend in VZ case a $2.46 (4.13%).
Why I sold it? I sold it because I saw other stocks growing faster, even though,
I like VZ's dividend of 4.13% (Yahoo).
