Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The high yields in the telecom sector mean that the annual tax drag in a taxable account is large and visible. The difference in how cash flows are taxed—whether qualified dividends from US C-corps or foreign-issuer distributions—determines who benefits most from Roth placement.

A fiscal bill has been signed that is expected to boost the cash flows of Comcast, AT&T, and Verizon.
