Telecom investors haven't seen a reward from the announced T-Mobile (NASDAQ:TMUS) and Sprint (NYSE:S) deal. It still appears that AT&T (NYSE:T) and Verizon (NYSE:VZ) would be two of the biggest beneficiaries if the merger goes through. Nonetheless, both companies' stock prices are down since T-Mobile and Sprint announced their plans to merge on April 29.
Perhaps investors don't believe the deal will gain approval, or don't think the new combined company will reduce the competitive intensity in the industry. Regardless, those interested in taking advantage of the potential merger in the telecom space are likely looking at AT&T and Verizon, as they're the market leaders and each pays a hefty dividend for patient investors.
But if you could only choose one of the two stocks, which should it be? AT&T or Verizon?

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Muslim Farooque]
FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ:FCEL) has been a public company for roughly three decades. However, it has yet to find its footing, marked by negative top-line, bottom-line, and cash flow growth. Since the beginning of the year, its performance has been abysmal, with poor operating results in the first half. The third quarter should be more of the same, which will put more pressure on FCEL stock.
