AT&T is returning $10B to shareholders and nobody cares — buy the ultimate safet
Created
Thesis
While the market obsesses over AI spending and Mag 7 earnings, AT&T is being ignored despite returning $10 billion to shareholders via a buyback. A stock trading at 8 times earnings with a 4.6% yield is priced for permanent decline, but the earnings beat proves the business is stable and generating real cash. In a week filled with Fed uncertainty and tech volatility, that reliable cash flow becomes highly attractive to scared investors looking for a safe place to park their money.
Strategy approach
Build a swing-trading strategy for T on the D1 timeframe. Enter long when the stock closes above its 20-day simple moving average on volume greater than the 20-day average. Exit if the stock closes below the 20-day SMA. Hold for a maximum of 15 trading days.
