LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - Shares in Vodafone may rise by a third, according to a report in financial weekly Barron´s.
For starters, a tie-up with Liberty Global was possible, even if the London-based firm had already said that talks were no loner ongoing.

After eight years in the dumps, sales in Europe had also begun to grow again over recent quarters, Barron's said.

Yes, competition and regulations in the European market were tough, but conditions appeared to have stabilised.

Vodafone´s operations in India, South Africa and other developing markets were "unappreciated" too and at over 5% the shares´ dividend yield compared favourably to the likes of Verizon Communications, AT&T or Deutsche Telekom.

As of 0844 BST shares in Vodafone were down by 0.27% to 220.65p.
