AT&T shares slide again as Starlink draws Wall Street attention

AT&T shares slide again as Starlink draws Wall Street attention

AT&T shares faced fresh selling early Friday, following two rough days as the market shifted from seeing satellite internet as a far-off issue to a clear risk for broadband growth. The stock last changed hands at $22.77. U.S. trading hadn’t opened yet at press time. Timing is key. Next week, SpaceX is set to take Starlink public, just as AT&T is working to keep investors on board with its fiber-led growth plan. Analysts are now starting to pitch low-Earth-orbit satellites as a real broadband rival, not only a solution for rural areas.
Verizon Stock Just Got Hit Hard. The Dividend Story Is Only Half the News

Verizon Stock Just Got Hit Hard. The Dividend Story Is Only Half the News

Verizon Communications Inc. shares ended Thursday down 3.8% at $44.87, lagging a stronger U.S. market on a day that brought both a Supreme Court setback for big wireless carriers and a fresh dividend pledge from the company. The stock opened at $47.19, traded as low as $44.31 and saw more than 33 million shares change hands, latest market data showed. The move stood out because the broader tape was better. The S&P 500 gained 0.41% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.73% to a record close, while the Nasdaq slipped 0.09% as chip stocks came under pressure, Reuters reported.
AT&T falls as SpaceX threat renews broadband concerns

AT&T falls as SpaceX threat renews broadband concerns

AT&T Inc. shares extended losses Thursday, slipping 3.7% to $22.69 by 12:47 p.m. EDT. Investors moved out of the telecom after a new SpaceX-related warning brought fresh worries over broadband competition. AT&T traded close to its session low and the company’s market cap stood near $159 billion. AT&T’s timing isn’t great. SpaceX is lining up a public listing this month. That’s set to give investors a clearer read on the value of Starlink, which delivers broadband via satellite, as compared to legacy fiber and wireless systems still valued for steady dividends. Oppenheimer said SpaceX could shake up the $1.6 trillion U.S. communications market. AT&T, along with Verizon and T-Mobile, could face faster drops in subscribers and revenue if Starlink catches on.

AT&T Inc. traded at $23.55 ahead of Thursday’s NYSE open, steady with where it finished Wednesday after sliding 4.4%. That drop followed new worry about SpaceX’s Starlink satellite-broadband plans. The NYSE opens for regular hours at 9:30 a.m. ET. SpaceX is planning to price its IPO at $135 a share, aiming for a $1.75 trillion valuation, according to Reuters. The company is expected to begin trading on Nasdaq on June 12.
Verizon Hires Deutsche Telekom Tech Head as Retail Wait Times Draw Scrutiny

Verizon Hires Deutsche Telekom Tech Head as Retail Wait Times Draw Scrutiny

Verizon picked up ex-Deutsche Telekom exec Abdu Mudesir to head up its network, platforms and technology unit, bringing in one of T-Mobile US parent’s senior leaders. The move comes as Verizon looks to restart growth with CEO Dan Schulman. Timing is a big factor. Schulman took over as CEO in October and put out goals to make things simpler, make it easier for customers and win them back. But a fresh report about in-store selling rules points to ongoing retail problems for that effort.

AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile Rally Against Dead Zones With Uncommon Satellite Move, Eye Starlink Push

AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile Rally Against Dead Zones With Uncommon Satellite Move, Eye Starlink Push

AT&T Inc. is teaming up with Verizon and T-Mobile—an unusual alliance among the top three U.S. mobile carriers—to launch a satellite-based venture targeting the country’s wireless dead zones. All three giants are throwing their weight behind what’s shaping up to be a race for direct phone-to-satellite service. The companies say their plan relies on direct-to-device tech, so regular phones connect straight to satellites, no special hardware required. It’s a conspicuous bit of timing. Just two days after the U.S. Federal Communications Commission cleared EchoStar’s $40 billion wireless spectrum sale — those are the frequencies mobile signals ride on — to SpaceX and AT&T, the announcement landed. The deal sets up Elon Musk’s Starlink for a more direct shot at cell service, while AT&T picks up crucial low- and mid-band 5G spectrum.
Verizon’s $1 Billion Spectrum Deal Wins FCC Approval as 5G Capacity Race Tightens

Verizon’s $1 Billion Spectrum Deal Wins FCC Approval as 5G Capacity Race Tightens

The Federal Communications Commission has signed off on Verizon’s $1 billion spectrum purchase from Array Digital Infrastructure, a 2024 deal aimed at boosting its wireless network’s coverage and capacity. Spectrum refers to the licensed airwaves that enable mobile calls and data. Timing here is key—the FCC is in the midst of a series of spectrum transfers, with mid-band auctions coming up, as wireless carriers look to secure additional capacity for 5G, fixed wireless broadband, and rural expansion. According to the agency, Verizon's deal lines up with its push to shift more spectrum to facilities-based operators able to actually deploy networks.
Verizon CEO Just Drew a Line on Free Phones. Customers Should Read the Fine Print

Verizon CEO Just Drew a Line on Free Phones. Customers Should Read the Fine Print

Verizon Communications CEO Dan Schulman is tightening the screws on giveaways, pulling back from the practice of handing out free phones and service lines to retain customers. Schulman is wagering that improvements in service and more precise marketing can keep users loyal without leaning on those costly promotions. “We are no longer giving away lines for free,” Schulman said, as reported by TheStreet. This time, Verizon posted something it hasn’t managed in over a decade—a net gain of 55,000 postpaid phone customers in the first quarter. These are the valuable wireless subscribers who pay their bills each month. It’s the first time since 2013 Verizon has reported a first-quarter increase for this group.

Verizon Stock Jumps After Subscriber Surprise: Why Q1 Earnings Changed the 2026 Story

Verizon Stock Jumps After Subscriber Surprise: Why Q1 Earnings Changed the 2026 Story

Verizon Communications popped roughly 3% Monday morning after the company posted an unexpected increase in monthly wireless subscribers and bumped its 2026 adjusted earnings outlook. For CEO Dan Schulman, it’s a notable early win in his first full quarter at the helm. Wall Street zeroed in on subscriber growth. Verizon delivered 55,000 new postpaid phone customers—these are the monthly billed accounts that drive profits for wireless players. Analysts polled by Visible Alpha had actually forecast a drop of 81,809.
Verizon Earnings Tomorrow: Subscriber Growth Is the Test for VZ’s Comeback

Verizon Earnings Tomorrow: Subscriber Growth Is the Test for VZ’s Comeback

Verizon Communications Inc. is set to deliver first-quarter numbers ahead of Monday’s opening bell, a check-in on CEO Dan Schulman and the momentum—or lack thereof—following a robust holiday stretch. The company plans to release its earnings at 7:00 a.m. ET, then host a webcast at 8:30 a.m. Timing is key here. Verizon just posted its first quarterly results since wrapping up the Frontier deal on Jan. 20. Management has since rolled out a 2026 roadmap: subscriber growth, more fiber, trimming costs, and dialing back on price hikes that don’t add value.

T-Mobile sues Verizon back over “Better Deal” ads as false-ad fight escalates

T-Mobile sues Verizon back over “Better Deal” ads as false-ad fight escalates

T-Mobile US fired back at Verizon Wireless in Manhattan federal court, launching a countersuit and charging its bigger competitor with “bait-and-switch” ads targeting potential switchers. For the year’s close, Verizon reported 146.9 million subscribers, edging out T-Mobile’s 142.4 million, while AT&T trailed with 120.1 million. This fight carries weight: the U.S. wireless game stopped being about finding fresh subscribers a while back. Now, it’s all about snatching customers from rivals, and price remains the main weapon. Presentation, bundling, exclusions—these details set the terms.
