Will these “forgiven” stocks justify investor support?

Over the next two weeks we will get the earnings show and tell from a number of companies that have had shockers over the past year or so but recently they have been ‘forgiven’ or at least trusted to perform better than expected.

Is Telstra back in the buy zone?

I have been a long-time fan of Telstra (TLS), not because it is a great company – because it is not – but because it is the dominant player providing services that none of us can go without. Further, as an investor, it is a super defensive stock which has reliable earnings, those earnings have been steadily increasing and it pays a good, almost fully franked dividend, which has also been increasing.
