NEW YORK, May 8 (Reuters) – Keith Meister, managing partner
and chief investment officer of Corvex Management, said on
Wednesday that alternative carriers TW Telecom Inc and
Level 3 Communications Inc could be on a par with
industry heavyweights AT&T; and Verizon in coming
years.
Sohn also said that TW Telecom is a strong candidate for
acquisition.
“There are lots of people who at the right time would want
to buy this company,” Meister said at the Sohn Investment
Conference in New York. He said TW Telecom could be acquired by
Level 3 or other companies such as Verizon and Time Warner
Cable.
Meister also said he likes Level 3 for its accelerating
revenue growth and the direction of its chief executive, Jeff
Storey.
