Top 5 Financial Stocks To Buy Right Now

LONDON -- Things are getting personal between�BT� (LSE: BT-A  ) (NYSE: BT  ) and�Sky� (LSE: BSY  ) . The telecoms company is muscling in on Sky's lucrative sports channel business, and the 39% News Corp.-owned pay-TV broadcaster doesn't like it.

Last year BT bought rights to screen Premier League football and Premiership rugby. It's miffed that Sky is refusing to run adverts for its new sports channel, and has asked industry regulator Ofcom to intervene. Yesterday Sky's Corporate Affairs director penned a letter to the�Financial Times, saying of BT that "this 拢22 billion gorilla in puppy's clothing would do well to look at its own double standards." BT is also undercutting the price Sky charges pubs for its sports channel, something that's likely to hit Sky's bottom line.
