Only thing I would have added if I was T would have been a reverse split. I do think a 5 for 1 could help psychologically for people to have a different view of the new cleaner telecom play with the bonus of companies at $100/share tend to be viewed as having more value. This whole mess will have people analyzing T stock value from periods post and pre split off and will all be a convoluted mess better to just strike a new starting point.Cut the dividends 47%. Now We need to see what the math will be when they calculate the added dividends for those new shares.

I was just typing up something along those lines. The T, DISCA merger then spinoff might be providing some opportunity if you are willing to dig into the financial math. Pre-merger Time Warner paid a decent dividend. There are going to be lots of people looking for an arbitrage scenario. There are two scenarios. For existing T holders I think they might get the short end of the stick "until" we see what if any dividend the new WBD company will pay. Time Warner used to pay a decent 2% dividend back in the day (about $1.5 a year).Only thing I would have added if I was T would have been a reverse split.

I highly doubt the media company will be paying a dividend. T has a pure play may be something for consideration.I was just typing up something along those lines.

For new investors, however, T stock hitting its low that it touched a month or so back of $22 puts its new dividend at 5%. For a new investor looking for a safe (in terms of cash flow) dividend, that might be appealing. I think the stock is going to be volatile for a while as analysts really theorycraft this deal but there might be some money to be made. DISCA currently trading around $27 so if you have 100 shares of T you lose 97 cents (or 97 dollars in the first year) but gain 24 shares valued at (24*27 = $648)
I wonder how many 'small business owners' bought boats with their PPP loans.
