American Tower Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMT#NYSE">AMT</a>) shares are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> trading lower on Tuesday</a> following the release of its second-quarter results.
The company reported second-quarter results, where total revenue <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46682856/american-tower-corporation-reports-second-quarter-2025-financial-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">increased 3.2% to $2.63 billion</a>. Adjusted EBITDA increased 1.8% to $1.75 billion.
According to Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider, the stock is likely to remain range-bound, as the results and 2025 guidance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AMT/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">generally align with Street expectations</a>.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/07/46697856/cadence-design-systems-delivers-beat-and-raise-quarter-despite-us-export-bans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cadence Design Systems Delivers Beat-And-Raise Quarter Despite US Export Bans</a>
Schneider adds that investors seem optimistic about American Tower due to stronger domestic organic growth heading into year-end, the possibility of a cost-cutting update in the second half of 2025, and sector-leading Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) per share growth.
The analyst also points out that American Tower has indirectly benefited from macro trends such as a weaker U.S. dollar and currency movements, which are reflected in the revised guidance.
With Crown Castle (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCI#NYSE">CCI</a>) delivering better-than-expected results and raising its 2025 domestic activity outlook, investors may expect similarly upbeat commentary from American Tower's earnings call.
Schneider mentions that American Tower&#8217;s 2025 core guidance largely matches Street expectations, with a slight improvement in international outlook but a small decline in U.S. organic growth projections.
The analyst also outlines potential downside risks, including additional strain on core tower leasing, international macroeconomic challenges, sustained high interest rates, and unfavorable foreign exchange movements.
Schneider reiterated the Buy rating on American Tower with a price forecast of $250.
Price Action: AMT shares are trading lower by 3.51% to $216.28 at last check Tuesday. &nbsp;

American Tower Sees Slightly Weaker US Growth As International Performance Strengthens

Risk appetite took a breather Tuesday, with major U.S. stock indices retreating modestly from record highs as investors braced for a pivotal stretch of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46693997/wall-street-earnings-preview-microsoft-apple-meta-amazon-mastercard-visa">earnings and macro events.</a>

Roughly $19.5 trillion in market value — led by four Magnificent Seven names: Microsoft Corp.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Apple Inc.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) — is set to report earnings by Thursday after market close.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve is widely expected to keep rates steady at 4.25%-4.5% on Wednesday, though growing market chatter points to possible dissent in favor of early cuts.
A 90-day extension of the U.S.-China trade truce remains on the table, said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick.
Attention will then shift to Thursday's heavy macro lineup, including second-quarter GDP growth estimates and June's PCE inflation data, followed by July's jobs report on Friday — key inputs for the Fed's next move.
By midday in New York, the S&amp;P 500 slipped 0.1%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.4%, and the Russell 2000 shed 0.7%. The Nasdaq 100 remained flat.
Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) surged past $175, breaching a major technical level and marking highs not seen since July 2014, making it one of the day's top tech performers.

The U.S. dollar extended its rally, on pace for a fourth consecutive gain after Monday's sharp move.
In commodities, oil prices stayed hot. WTI crude rose 1.6% to $67.75 per barrel, extending Monday's 2.4% jump and hitting a two-week high. Precious metals traded sideways as dollar strength continued to limit upside momentum.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) edged down 1% to $117,000, logging a second straight daily decline.

AMD Rises To 1-Year Highs, Crude Eyes $68: What's Moving Markets Tuesday?

American Tower's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMT#NYSE">AMT</a>) short percent of float has fallen 7.55% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.99 million shares sold short, which is 1.47% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.41 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>American Tower Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1753808423_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for American Tower has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.

<h3>Comparing American Tower P/E Against Its Peers</h3>

It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 48.42 in the Specialized REITs industry, American Tower Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 34.81. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1750276827_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.
