Donald Trump's pick for Health Secretary previously told Joe Rogan that Wi-Fi “opens up your blood-brain barrier.”

The telecommunications company is experiencing growth after finishing a long-term strategic change.

AT&T has recently shared its goals for free cash flow and its plan to reduce debt.

Using Corning's top-notch solution, T plans to grow its fiber network infrastructure to provide faster Internet access to more people in the United States.

AT&T has performed well financially, thanks to growth in its mobility and fiber sectors, which allows it to offer a 5% dividend yield and lower its debt. The company aims to grow its 5G and fiber services, anticipating over $2 billion in cost savings by mid-2026 and a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.5x by the first half of 2025. Even with competition from T-Mobile, AT&T's investments in fiber and 5G, along with its manageable debt, put it in a good position for ongoing returns to shareholders.
