Telecom Italia is poised for improved fortunes

Article Abstract:

Telecom Italia SpA is expected to see a rise in its share value in 1999 amidst new management, a possible downsizing, and the company's poor performance in 1998 on the stock market. In addition, Italy's Treasury will sell off its share in Telecom Italia, a former monopoly in the telecommunications industry. Analysts believe that this could bring in a partner from overseas. This in turn, would improve the company's outlook.
