AT&T INC

AT&T

The wireless business contributes nearly 70% of AT&T's revenue. The firm is the third-largest US wireless carrier, connecting 73 million postpaid and 17 million prepaid phone customers. Fixed-line enterprise services, which account for about 15% of revenue, include internet access, private networking, security, voice, and wholesale network capacity. Residential fixed-line services, about 11% of revenue, primarily consist of broadband internet access, serving 14 million customers. AT&T also has a sizable presence in Mexico, with 24 million customers, but this business only accounts for 3% of revenue. The firm has agreed to sell its 70% equity stake in satellite television provider DirecTV to its partner, private equity firm TPG.

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) has demonstrated significant momentum, with its stock surging 43.4% in the last three months and 99% over the past year.
The company&#8217;s market cap recently reached half a trillion dollars (its current market cap is $552 billion), as its stock hit a 52-week high of $1,341.
This impressive growth is fueled by a robust content strategy, including hits like Squid Game and Stranger Things, the successful integration of NFL games, a burgeoning ad-supported tier, and an effective crackdown on password sharing.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Earnings</h2>
The streaming giant&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44877995/netflix-crushes-q1-says-its-working-hard-to-improve-and-expand-its-offering" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter revenue</a> climbed 12.5% year over year to $10.54 billion, exceeding Street estimates. Earnings per share, at $6.61, similarly beat expectations.
Netflix anticipates continued strong performance, projecting second-quarter revenue of $11.04 billion (up 15.4% year over year) and maintaining its full-year revenue guidance of $43.5 billion—$44.5 billion.
Live events are a key focus, with WWE RAW consistently ranking in Netflix&#8217;s global top 10, alongside upcoming boxing matches and a second NFL Christmas Day game in 2025. The recent premiere of Squid Game Season 3 and its companion game, Squid Game: Unleashed, further solidify its content dominance.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Opinion</h2>
Analysts remain bullish, with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NFLX/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price forecast</a> of $1,153 from 32 analysts and a high of $1,600 from Pivotal Research on June 20, 2025.
With an average price forecast of $1508.33 between Pivotal Research, Wells Fargo, and Oppenheimer, there&#8217;s an implied 12.73% upside for Netflix from these most recent analyst ratings.
In April, Bank of America Securities (BofA) analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich forecasted Netflix <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/04/44826592/netflix-wants-to-be-the-next-1-trillion-company-analyst-highlights-growth-path" rel="noreferrer noopener">to reach a $1 trillion</a> valuation by 2030, driven by advertising, global expansion, and subscriber growth.
Netflix&#8217;s ad-supported plan now reaches 94 million monthly users, boosting its appeal to advertisers, especially among 18–34-year-olds, Ehrlich had said.&nbsp;
Netflix&#8217;s market capitalization of $552 billion significantly surpasses Walt Disney Co.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) $223 billion, despite Disney&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/reiteration/25/06/46148033/can-disneys-experiences-segment-truly-bring-the-magic-back-for-investors" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent 27% surge</a> primarily due to its Experiences segment.
Comcast Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>),&nbsp;Verizon Communications&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), and&nbsp;AT&amp;T&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) have indeed faced subscriber losses in their video services due to the rise of Netflix and other streaming services.
This reflects a broader trend, as <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/entertainment/25/06/45978982/streaming-dethrones-tv-giants-netflix-youtube-lead-the-takeover" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nielsen reports</a> streaming viewership, led by Netflix and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (GOOG) YouTube, now accounts for 44.8% of total TV time, surpassing broadcast and cable combined.
Price Action: NFLX stock is trading lower by 0.16% to $1,295 at last check Thursday.

TPG Completes Acquisition of AT&T's 70% Stake in DIRECTV

AT&amp;T Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) dealt with a public call-out from President Donald Trump and his press secretary due to a long wait time for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/telecommunications">Faith Leaders Conference Call</a>.
"AT&amp;T is totally unable to make their equipment work properly," Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114773668772907430">said </a>in a post on his Truth Social platform. "This is the second time it's happened. If the Boss of AT&amp;T, whoever that may be, could get involved – it would be good."
Trump went on to apologize to the people who were experiencing the long wait, saying there were thousands on the line.
"AT&amp;T ought to get its act together,&#8221; the 79-year-old president <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114773696636727417">said</a>, adding that there&#8217;s a chance the call could be rescheduled with a different phone carrier. "AT&amp;T obviously doesn't know what they're doing!" 
The telecommunications giant claims it reached out to the White House to assess the situation. Afterward, it denied responsibility for the glitch and offered up a blame game of its own.
"Our initial analysis indicates the disruption was caused by an issue with the conference call platform, not our network. Unfortunately, this caused the delay, and we are working diligently to better understand the issue," AT&amp;T <a href="https://x.com/ATT/status/1939762407657636274">said </a>in a reply to Leavitt.

Why It's Important: The public spat between AT&amp;T and Trump underscores the political pressures facing major companies and brands. His call to use a different carrier might not immediately hurt AT&amp;T's financials, or get people to switch services. However, it comes in an era of Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/23/11/35898004/if-you-invested-1-000-in-apple-stock-when-donald-trump-sold-heres-the-yuge-return-you-would-hav">publicly calling out companies</a> and could go a long way in hurting the company's name among Trump&#8217;s ardent supporters.
His criticism of AT&amp;T also comes ahead of a planned <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">launch of Trump Mobile</a>, a startup that seeks to compete with phone carriers.
Trump Mobile will come with several plans, including "The 47 Plan," which costs $47.45 per month, a nod to Trump's time as the 45th and 47th President of the United States.
A gold version of the T1 phone will come with a price of $499, or consumers can use their existing phones.
Promises that Trump Mobile products would be "made in America" have been toned down with the wording recently removed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46115238/trumps-t1-mobile-drops-made-in-usa-label-for-designed-with-american-values-tweaks-design-specs-report">from the company's website.</a>
Terms of Use for Trump Mobile say the network is &#8220;powered by Liberty Mobile,&#8221; a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) using the T-Mobile network from T-Mobile US Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>).
Price Action: AT&amp;T stock trades at $28.84 on Tuesday, hitting a new 52-week high of $29.19 earlier in the intraday session. AT&amp;T stock is up 26.3% year-to-date in 2025.

The Private 5G Networks buildout provides a scalable, long-term connectivity foundation for advanced data, AI, edge computing, and IoT infrastructure deployments to transform port and manufacturing operations.

The Verizon Private 5G Networks will be deployed to DP World London Gateway, DP World Logistics Park, Port of Tilbury, and Ford Dagenham.
The move marks Verizon&#8217;s attempt to unlock value beyond U.S. The stock is up just 4% in the last 12 months as it grappled with weaker subscriber numbers due to competition from AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) and T-Mobile US (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>).
Verizon reported&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44920917/verizon-struggles-with-subscriber-losses-from-price-increases-competition-and-lower-government-support" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal&nbsp;first-quarter</a> revenue growth of 1.5% year-over-year, reaching $33.49 billion, topping the&nbsp;analyst consensus estimate of $33.24 billion. Adjusted EPS of $1.19 topped the&nbsp;analyst&nbsp;consensus estimate of $1.15.
Total wireless service revenue was $20.8 billion, up 2.7% Y/Y.
Postpaid phone net losses were 289,000 versus 114,000 net losses Y/Y driven by price hikes, rival promotional offers, and lesser government support. Verizon attributed some of the loss to lower spending by some federal agencies.
Verizon reiterated a 2.0%-2.8% growth in wireless service revenue. It reaffirmed an adjusted EPS of $4.59-$4.73 versus consensus of $4.67.
Price action:&nbsp;On Tuesday, Verizon shares edged up 0.64%, closing the session at $42.63.

Verizon Teams Up With Nokia To Bring High-Tech 5G Boost To Busy British Ports

The Trump Organization's push into the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45990957/trump-mobile-plans-to-launch-499-t-1-phone-made-in-the-usa-but-expert-says-you-dont-have-the-employees-that-can-do-it">smartphone business</a> leans on a tiny Florida-based wireless company headquartered in a Trump Tower condo.
What Happened: To power Trump Mobile's "Made in America" smartphone and wireless plan, the Trump Organization partnered with Liberty Mobile Wireless, a little-known mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) founded in 2018, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/8b58f16e-fafa-4cfe-a5dc-353fe39f87c7">reported</a> the Financial Times.
A mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) is a business that leases network capacity from major carriers like AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), and T-Mobile U.S. Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>), and then resells it under its own brand to customers.

The company is registered at a unit inside the luxury Trump Tower in Miami and lists fewer than 50 employees on LinkedIn.&nbsp;
Despite billing itself as the backbone of Trump Mobile's national rollout, Liberty Mobile Wireless's website still features placeholder text — five identical entries answering the question, "What is Lorem Ipsum?"
Company filings link Liberty Mobile to entrepreneur Matt Lopatin, who has previously launched and dissolved several small ventures.
Why It's Important: Trump Mobile launched earlier this month with promises of a U.S.-made smartphone called the "T1," <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">retailing for $499</a>.
The order page briefly crashed after its launch on Monday due to what one employee on Wednesday described as a "rush of inquiries," the report noted.&nbsp;
Launching in August alongside a new wireless service called Trump Mobile, the device will reportedly be manufactured in Alabama, California and Florida. However, industry experts are doubtful about large-scale U.S. smartphone production.
Previously, Roger Entner of Recon Analytics noted that no major smartphones have been made in the U.S. since the 2G/3G era due to a lack of infrastructure, skilled labor and supply chains.
Analyst Dan Ives also suggested the project might work on a small scale but would face serious challenges if production exceeds 20,000–40,000 units.
Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings show a continued downward trend for TMUS in the short and medium term, while indicating an upward trend over the long term. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More performance insights are available here</a>.

Trump's 'Made in America' Phone Plan Is Backed By A Little-Known Network Based In His Miami Condo, Whose Website Still Says 'What Is Lorem Ipsum?'

T-Mobile&nbsp;US (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) is looking to launch a new data service on its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43582884/elon-musks-spacex-and-t-mobile-go-live-with-starlink-powered-satellite-to-cell-service-heres-how-much-it-will-cost" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">satellite-to-cell network</a>, powered by SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink, by October.
T-Satellite, T-Mobile&#8217;s satellite-to-cell network service, will commercially launch on July 23. It will offer SMS texting, MMS, picture messaging, and short audio clips.
Over 1.8 million customers have signed up for the service since its beta program launch in 2024, including customers from AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) and Verizon Communications (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) following the Super Bowl ad, Reuters reported on Tuesday, citing Mike Katz, President of Marketing, Strategy and Products at T-Mobile <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsr6tnlq1k0" rel="noreferrer noopener">during an event</a>.

The telecom company will launch a data service on October 1 to allow application experiences on the satellite network.
With over 657 Starlink satellites, the US wireless carrier is looking to extend connectivity to over 500,000 square miles in the US, which is unpenetrable to traditional cell towers.
This move addresses a significant coverage gap, bringing service to remote and underserved areas.
In May 2024, SpaceX itself demonstrated the capabilities of its direct-to-cell Starlink satellite technology with a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/05/38950223/spacex-conducts-first-starlink-cell-video-satellite-call-what-you-need-to-know" rel="noreferrer noopener">live video call</a> on X.
While T-Mobile is partnering with Starlink, competitors are also making strides in this area; Verizon and AT&amp;T have tapped AST SpaceMobile to provide <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/39062478/whats-going-on-with-ast-spacemobile-stock-on-wednesday" rel="noreferrer noopener">satellite service</a>, with Verizon already having introduced satellite <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44644607/verizons-new-3-year-price-lock-free-phone-offer-strategic-move-to-boost-customer-retention" rel="noreferrer noopener">text messaging</a> for its customers.
Apple Inc.

The broader satellite communication market is experiencing significant growth, having been valued at $84.47 billion in 2023 and projected to reach $194.55 billion by 2032, exhibiting a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.72% from 2024-2032.
This growth is driven by increasing demand for high-speed internet, expanding applications of satellite-based services in defense and commercial sectors, and continuous improvements in satellite technology.
Price Action: T-Mobile US stock is trading higher by 0.43% to $227.95 premarket at last check Tuesday.

<h2>Discovering AT&amp;T: A Closer Look</h2>
The wireless business contributes nearly 70% of AT&amp;T's revenue. The firm is the third-largest US wireless carrier, connecting 73 million postpaid and 17 million prepaid phone customers. Fixed-line enterprise services, which account for about 15% of revenue, include internet access, private networking, security, voice, and wholesale network capacity. Residential fixed-line services, about 11% of revenue, primarily consist of broadband internet access, serving 14 million customers. AT&amp;T also has a sizable presence in Mexico, with 24 million customers, but this business only accounts for 3% of revenue. The firm has agreed to sell its 70% equity stake in satellite television provider DirecTV to its partner, private equity firm TPG.
<h3>AT&amp;T: Delving into Financials</h3>
Market Capitalization Highlights: Above the industry average, the company's market capitalization signifies a significant scale, indicating strong confidence and market prominence.
Revenue Growth: AT&amp;T displayed positive results in 3M. As of 31 March, 2025, the company achieved a solid revenue growth rate of approximately 1.99%. This indicates a notable increase in the company's top-line earnings. In comparison to its industry peers, the company trails behind with a growth rate lower than the average among peers in the Communication Services sector.
Net Margin: AT&amp;T's net margin is impressive, surpassing industry averages. With a net margin of 14.35%, the company demonstrates strong profitability and effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): AT&amp;T's financial strength is reflected in its exceptional ROE, which exceeds industry averages. With a remarkable ROE of 4.22%, the company showcases efficient use of equity capital and strong financial health.
Return on Assets (ROA): AT&amp;T's ROA surpasses industry standards, highlighting the company's exceptional financial performance. With an impressive 1.11% ROA, the company effectively utilizes its assets for optimal returns.
Debt Management: AT&amp;T's debt-to-equity ratio surpasses industry norms, standing at 1.38. This suggests the company carries a substantial amount of debt, posing potential financial challenges.
<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

UBS Maintains Buy on AT&T, Raises Price Target to $31

Billionaire Mark Cuban questioned the manufacturing details of President Donald Trump&#8216;s family business&#8217;s newly announced mobile phone venture, writing on X Monday, &#8220;I just want to know who makes them and where,&#8221; following Eric Trump&#8216;s announcement that &#8220;Trump Mobile is going to revolutionize cell phones.&#8221;
What Happened: Cuban suggested the strategic play involves cryptocurrency integration, stating the game company is &#8220;probably playing is to put a crypto wallet on the phone that leverages World Liberty Financial (WLF), OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP) and their stable coins.&#8221;
&#8220;Whatever transactions they can create generates fees for them and there are so many way to sell things and pre-load whatever they want,&#8221; Cuban wrote. 
Trump&#8217;s sons Eric and Donald Jr. unveiled Trump Mobile during a Monday event at Trump Tower in New York, marking the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">latest business venture from the president&#8217;s family</a>. The service will operate as a mobile virtual network operator using T-Mobile US Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) network infrastructure through Liberty Mobile.
The company promises &#8220;made in America&#8221; phones, with a gold-colored T1 model priced at $499 available for September 2025 preorder with a $100 deposit. Trump Mobile&#8217;s flagship offering, &#8220;The 47 Plan,&#8221; costs $47.45 monthly, referencing Trump&#8217;s status as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">both the 45th and 47th president</a>.

Why It Matters: The launch follows recent complications in Trump family crypto ventures. Their cryptocurrency wallet project was suspended earlier this month amid internal disputes at World Liberty Financial, though Eric Trump confirmed continued commitment to the TRUMP meme coin, which has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45829666/trump-branded-crypto-wallet-project-suspended-amid-internal-dispute-says-eric-trump">contributed nearly $2.9 billion</a> to President Trump&#8217;s net worth.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>), and T-Mobile.

Cuban&#8217;s skepticism highlights industry questions about whether Trump phones will be manufactured domestically from launch or represent a future goal, particularly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45954307/donald-trump-wants-you-to-use-his-new-47-mobile-plan-with-a-499-gold-phone-made-in-america">as Trump has threatened to impose tariffs</a> on Apple Inc.

"We've partnered with some of the greatest people in the industry to make sure that real Americans get true value from their mobile carriers," Trump Jr. said, as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-16/trump-launches-self-branded-mobile-phone-service-in-the-us?srnd=homepage-americas&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>.
Trump Mobile will operate on U.S. wireless networks with phones that are "made in America," according to the company.
Plans on Trump Mobile will offer unlimited calling and texting to more than 100 countries, along with features like telemedicine help and roadside assistance.
Customers will be able to use their existing phones or purchase a Trump-branded phone, called the T1, which will be made in America. The Verge <a href="https://www.theverge.com/news/687418/trump-mobile-network-t1-trademark-application">reported </a>a $499 gold version of the phone with a currently listed release of September 2025, which is available for preorder now with a $100 deposit.
Trump Mobile will offer plans such as "The 47 Plan," which costs $47.45 per month, a nod to Trump&#8217;s being both the 47th and 45th president of the United States.
Terms of Use for Trump Mobile say the network is "powered by Liberty Mobile," a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) using the T-Mobile network.
"Trump Mobile is going to revolutionize cellphones, mobile calling," Eric Trump told Fox News on Monday.

Why It's Important: The new phone company and phone service could test the waters of loyalty for Trump fans and see if they can disrupt the "Big 3" wireless operators in the United States. AT&amp;T Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), Verizon (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) and T-Mobile US (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>).
T-Mobile U.S. could end up being the winner in the launch as it is the MVNO being used. T-Mobile also provides its network for other cheaper mobile offerings like Mint Mobile, Metro and U.S. Mobile.
Trump&#8217;s sons emphasize the importance of the Trump Mobile phones being made in the U.S., but questions remain about whether they will be from the start or if that is the future goal. The push for made-in-America phones comes as Trump battles Apple over their smartphones being made in China and India, with the president placing tariffs on phones made in other countries.
The launch of Trump Mobile follows some celebrities who have dipped their toes in the telecommunications market. Ryan Reynolds was an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/23/03/31362824/ryan-reynolds-mobile-company-gets-1-35b-buyout-from-t-mobile-will-he-purchase-an-nhl-team-with-that">investor in Mint Mobile</a>, which sold to T-Mobile in 2023.
Actors Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes, the trio behind the "SmartLess" podcast, recently announced a new mobile company called SmartLess Mobile.
One potential red flag and conflict of interest for Trump Mobile will be the president's involvement in the company and the fact that FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, a Republican appointed by Trump, will oversee the company&#8217;s regulation.  
Trump and his family&#8217;s launch of a mobile network follows several recent business ventures since he first became president, including a social media network, NFTs, bibles, sneakers, a meme cryptocurrency, and more.

Donald Trump Wants You To Use His New $47 Mobile Plan With A $499 Gold Phone Made In America

AT&amp;T's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.45% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 86.32 million shares sold short, which is 1.2% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.74 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>AT&amp;T Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749844821_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for AT&amp;T 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 AT&amp;T's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, AT&amp;T's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 1.24%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Do Investors Really Feel About AT&T?

Hollywood actors turned hosts of the popular podcast &#8220;SmartLess,&#8221; Jason Bateman, Will Arnett and Sean Hayes, expanded their brand on Tuesday by launching a new mobile phone service<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42221861/joe-rogans-interview-with-donald-trump-cant-put-podcaster-at-top-of-apples-2024-rankings-heres-who-beat-him"> called SmartLess Mobile.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: SmartLess Mobile, a direct-to-consumer wireless provider, aims to offer affordable plans by focusing on customers who use less data than traditional unlimited plans provide.&nbsp;
"If you own your phone, spend most of your day on Wi-Fi, and are on an unlimited data plan, moving to SmartLess Mobile could literally cut your monthly bill in half. Seriously, if your phone bill knew how often you're on Wi-Fi, it would be embarrassed," Hayes said in a statement.&nbsp;

Bateman highlighted that most SmartLess podcast listeners engage with the show through their phones, making the move into the mobile sector a natural extension of the brand.
"Our SmartLess podcast now reaches millions of listeners each month, almost all of whom listen on their phones," said Bateman. "Extending the SmartLess brand into mobile is a logical next step."
SmartLess Mobile is positioning itself as a value-driven alternative to major carriers like Verizon Communications, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) and AT&amp;T, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) by providing cost-effective plans for consumers who don't need unlimited data. 
The initiative may have been inspired by the success of celebrity-backed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/06/45816039/the-investment-ryan-reynolds-says-hes-more-proud-of-than-anything-hes-done-in-his-life">mobile venture</a> Mint Mobile (co-founded by actor Ryan Reynolds), which was acquired by T-Mobile US, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NYSE">TMUS</a>) for $1.3 billion in 2023. 
Celebrity brands have become dominant forces by leveraging star power to drive consumer interest, sales and brand loyalty. For example, e.l.f Beauty, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ELF#NYSE">ELF</a>) purchased rhode, Hailey Bieber&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45677382/elf-beauty-buys-hailey-biebers-brand-rhode-for-1-billion-now-shes-richer-than-husband-justin-bieber">prestige cosmetics brand</a>, in May for $1 billion. 
Consumers are drawn to brands where celebrities are genuinely involved, and social media amplifies their reach, which could drive success for SmartLess Mobile.&nbsp;
