Large companies aren't really famous
for being good at sharing. With that in mind, the shared ownership of
Verizon Wireless between Verizon (NYSE:VZ) and Vodafone (Nasdaq:VOD)
has always seemed inherently unstable. While the companies once
contemplated an IPO for the business, the decision to maintain the
status quo has led to nearly annual speculations as to whether the two
companies will reach agreement on some sort of M&A transaction.
Whether
it's due to real interest or just the fact that the market is in a dry
patch for news prior to the next earnings cycle, these rumors have
heated up once again. In an interesting twist, rumors are now including AT&T (NYSE:T)
as a potential third party to facilitate a transaction that would
essentially split up Vodafone between the two American carriers.
