Verizon (NYSE: VZ) stock continued to rally in February following the company's strong fourth-quarter results at the end of January. The telecommunications' share price surged 20.4% higher in the month, and the performance looks even stronger amid a 0.9% decline for the S&P 500 and a 3.4% decline for the Nasdaq Composite in the month .
Blowout quarters are a rare thing in Verizon's corner of the telecommunications industry, but the company delivered at the end of January -- and it's translated into a sustained rally for the stock. The stock is now up roughly 25.5% across 2026's trading.
