0:00.0 | Welcome to Current Yield Grants Interest Rate Observer of the Air. I'm Jim Grant, and with me as always is the great deputy editor of Grants, Evan Lorenz, and Henry French is our sound engineer. Again, as per always, but not per always, but uniquely |
0:22.6 | on this issue of current yield, is Craig Moffat, who is the co-founder of Moffat Nathanson, |
0:30.6 | and himself is Wall Street Research Royals, having been selected no fewer than nine times |
0:37.4 | as a number one telecom and |
