7 Stocks to Buy if You Have $1,000 to Invest - 2 of 7

 
 

#2 - T-Mobile (NASDAQ:TMUS)

T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ: TMUS) is an example of why you can make exciting profits from what are considered to be boring stocks. At its core, T-Mobile is a wireless communications company. It makes revenue from selling wireless plans, which it does better than many competitors due to the size of its network. 

The company is a leader in what’s known as fixed wireless. This is the practice of providing broadband service to residential consumers using the company’s existing 5G connections. In coming years, the company will pivot to fiber-optic cable connections.  

This will command a premium price, but it will bring competition from more established competitors. And the company has already invested approximately $6 billion into joint ventures to support this transition.  

The stock is up 33% in 2024, which is on par with the S&P 500. Over the last five years, investors have received a total return of 174.24%. That includes the company’s dividend, which has a yield of 1.64% as of October 14, 2024. T-Mobile management has also announced plans to return up to $50 billion to shareholders through share buybacks and dividends through 2027.
