Does Telstra represent good value after its fall?
Tim Kelley
August 25, 2017
Back in May, we noted that the Telstra (TLS) share price had fallen by more than 20 percent in the previous 12 months, and we asked whether good value might be on offer.

Most of the growth can be attributed to growth in the more expensive ‘premium’ depth ads, and much of the growth came from higher prices. continue…
