📍 The outcome

The AT&T CEO’s comments on withstanding satellite competition arrived alongside a earnings beat, a $10 billion buyback announcement and a trading profile of 8 times earnings with a 4.6% yield. Analysts subsequently examined possible risks to the stock and whether the strong Q2 results and larger buybacks should prompt investor action.
