re: CenturyLink(CTL)?

I've been looking at it for a long time. They carry a lot of debt. I basically view this as a utility. I think analysts and financial advisers consider this a growth stock, but I'd disagree. They are without a doubt a cash flow game, and at this point have free cash flow to make it a viable ongoing company, although insiders activity hasn't been extremely positive.

I'm a customer. They have horrible employees, and must treat them poorly. Much like they treat their customers. That's neither here nor there, but something I take note of.

I honestly don't know what to do, and based on trend I follow the basic rule of not fighting the last tick. The last tick(s) haven't been good. For quite some time now.
