Why AT&T Stock Was a Winner Today
AT&T (NYSE: T) scored, if not a touchdown, then a field goal that tilted the score in its favor at the end of the week. DirecTV, in which the company holds a majority stake, announced a fresh multi-year broadcasting deal with a top professional sports league. Investors liked the sound of that and rewarded AT&T by kicking its share price 2.3% higher on the day.
