NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 14:48 ET — Regular session
- T-Mobile shares rose 1.4% to $203.83 in afternoon trading.
- The broader market slipped as tech stocks retreated, keeping investors focused on rates into year-end. 1
- Next catalysts include the Fed’s meeting minutes on Tuesday and T-Mobile’s Feb. 11 results and target update. 2
T-Mobile US shares rose 1.4% on Monday afternoon, outperforming a weaker U.S. market. The stock was up $2.83 at $203.83.
The move matters now because Wall Street is in the final, holiday-thinned stretch of the year, when smaller flows can move prices more than usual. Investors are also recalibrating around the path of interest rates after the Federal Reserve’s late-2025 easing. 2
U.S. Treasury yields edged lower as investors adjusted their bets for more Fed rate cuts next year, Reuters reported. Lower yields can support telecom stocks that trade as “bond proxies” — steady-cash-flow businesses that investors often value similar to fixed income. 3
At 1:38 p.m. ET, the Dow was down 0.38%, the S&P 500 was off 0.35% and the Nasdaq fell 0.55%, weighed by declines in heavyweight technology names, Reuters reported. 1
Peers were mixed. Verizon was little changed while AT&T rose about 0.9%.
With few fresh corporate catalysts during the holiday period, investors are leaning on the calendar for the next fundamental readout. T-Mobile said it plans to discuss fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results on Feb. 11, 2026, alongside an update to its financial targets for 2026 and 2027. 4
That kind of update typically puts the long-range story in focus, from customer growth and network spending to free cash flow and shareholder returns. Any reset to targets can move telecom valuations quickly because the business is capital-intensive and carries meaningful debt.
“It’s a very light trading week ahead; volume is low,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research. He said year-end moves can reflect tax-loss harvesting — selling positions that are down to help reduce a tax bill. 3
Macro catalysts are also in the frame. Minutes from the Fed’s most recent meeting are due Tuesday, and a weekly reading of jobless claims is on the radar later in the week, Reuters reported. 2
U.S. markets are shut Thursday for New Year’s Day, a schedule that often further compresses liquidity and can exaggerate intraday swings. Investors will watch whether rate-cut expectations keep Treasury yields drifting lower into early 2026. 1
On the chart, TMUS traded between $200.51 and $204.13 on Monday. The round $200 level held as near-term support, while $204-$205 marks the next area traders have been testing.
Competitive pressure remains a constant theme for the big U.S. wireless carriers, especially around handset upgrade cycles and promotional intensity. Any shift in pricing discipline — or renewed discounting — can move T-Mobile alongside Verizon and AT&T.
For TMUS, the next big swing factor is guidance clarity rather than headlines. Investors are likely to focus on Feb. 11 for the company’s 2026–2027 target update and on Tuesday’s Fed minutes for rate signals that can reset the sector’s valuation backdrop. 4
