Merger Monday this week is likely to kick off with a deal in the tech space, with electronics components maker Amphenol Corp. (APH) reportedly close to announcing&nbsp;an agreement to acquire the broadband connectivity and cable solutions (CCS) business of communication equipment maker CommScope (COMM).In overnight trading,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/COMM">CommScope stock</a> jumped 22%, while&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/APH">Amphenol stock</a> edged down 0.30%.A Wall Street Journal report, citing people familiar with the matter,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.wsj.com/business/deals/amphenol-nears-big-broadband-deal-in-ai-boom-3909b0df">stated that</a> the rumored transaction, valued at approximately $10.5 billion, including debt, would be completed as early as Monday.The Journal said big strategics and private-equity firms pursued CommScope’s CCS business. The company is scheduled to report its quarterly results on Thursday before the market opens.In the first quarter that ended March 31, the CCS segment contributed $724.1 million to CommScope’s topline, accounting for 65% of the total revenue. The segment’s revenue grew 20% year over year (YoY).The CCS business provides network access, cable headend, and passive optical network (PON) technologies&nbsp;to telecommunication companies, as well as cable companies, and offers data center connectivity for cloud/hyperscalers. It also brings gigabit broadband (cable, IPTV, OTT) to homes and businesses worldwide.CommScope’s decision to offload its top revenue contributor may have been motivated by the need to reduce its heavy debt pile. At the end of the first quarter, the company’s balance sheet showed long-term debt of $7.25 billion, and its second-quarter interest expense was $173.7 million.In early February, CommScope completed the divestment of its outdoor wireless networks and distributed antenna systems businesses to Amphenol in a deal valued at more than $2 billion.The Journal stated that the CCS deal,&nbsp;if completed, will be Amphenol's largest&nbsp;to date. The deal will also boost the company’s data center offerings to meet the surging artificial intelligence (AI) demand.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward CommScope stock turned to ‘extremely bullish’ (78/100) by late Sunday from ‘bullish’ a day ago and ‘neutral’ a week ago.

Telecommunications firm AT&amp;T Inc.(T) has reached a $177 million preliminary settlement to put to rest a series of lawsuits stemming from data breaches that compromised the personal information of millions of its customers across the United States.A Reuters report said the agreement was deemed fair and reasonable by U.S. District Judge Ada Brown during a hearing on Friday in Dallas federal court, where the class-action lawsuit was being litigated.&nbsp;Depending on the specific breach and impact, affected customers may receive up to $2,500 or $5,000 for documented losses directly connected to the incidents.&nbsp;One of the incidents led to unauthorized downloads of approximately 109 million accounts, including call and text log data from 2022. This information was reportedly extracted from AT&amp;T’s cloud system managed via Snowflake Inc. (SNOW).&nbsp;The breach impacted a six-month timeframe, compromising nearly the entire customer base.In March 2024, AT&amp;T announced that it was investigating a data set discovered on the dark web. Initial findings indicated the data included information on 7.6 million current and over 65 million past customers.&nbsp;The compromised data appeared to predate 2020, likely originating from 2019 or earlier. The Federal Communications Commission is conducting a separate inquiry.In November 2024, a TechCrunch report revealed that the Department of Justice formally charged the two hackers, referring to their victim as a primary U.S. telecom provider.&nbsp;These details closely match disclosures AT&amp;T made about compromised metadata from customer communications.Authorities allege that the two carried out a year-long extortion campaign, demanding roughly $2.5 million in Bitcoin from several affected firms.&nbsp;They reportedly infiltrated AT&amp;T’s cloud systems in November 2023, along with data from other Snowflake clients.As digital threats grow more complex and frequent, class-action litigation is becoming a key mechanism for holding companies accountable and compensating affected individuals.&nbsp;On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around AT&amp;T remained in ‘bearish’ territory.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:958/121;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_06_20_135811_png_fa656ad455.webp" alt="T's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 2.00 p.m. ET on Jun.20, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="958" height="121"><figcaption>T's Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 2.00 p.m. ET on Jun.20, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>AT&amp;T stock has gained over 22% in 2025 and 54% in the last 12 months.Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/meta-and-oakley-ai-enhanced-smart-glasses-for-athletes/chlxYOxRRPD">Meta And Oakley’s AI-Enhanced Smart Glasses For Athletes Draws Retail Cheer</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Wall Street Divided On AT&T Stock, But Retail Braces For Rally Following Q1 Print

Raymond James said the company’s wireless growth and free cash flow ramp will attract investors, while Citi views that the stock valuation has partly factored in improvement in fundamentals.

Telecom giant AT&amp;T is currently the 11th best-performing S&amp;P 500 stock and&nbsp;its strength has come amid volatile market conditions. Telecoms are typically defensive bets as demand for communication services remains strong even in recessionary conditions.AT&amp;T stock has gained nearly 23% this year, which compares favorably to the S&amp;P 500 Index’s 2.9% year-to-date loss and the Nasdaq Composite’s 7.3% plunge.&nbsp;The rally has been supported by its defensive appeal and the company’s improved fundamentals. In late January, the<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/T"> AT&amp;T stock</a> gap opened higher after the Dallas, Texas-based company reported fourth-quarter results that aligned with expectations.Sell-side analysts&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/at-and-t-stock-snags-price-target-hikes-after-solid-q4-results/chbVJTgRYn">lauded the subscriber growth&nbsp;</a>and progress with cost elimination. They also expressed confidence that the company’s organic growth will be robust enough to offset the anticipated increase in cash taxes in 2025 and the significant capex spending on fiber and wireless networks.After a runup until early March, the stock paused for a breather but resumed the uptrend in mid-March.On Wednesday, AT&amp;T defied the broader market weakness due to the optimism generated by&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/lumen-analysts-say-competing-offers-likely-after-rumored-at-and-t-deal/chJGvmoRb3f">reports&nbsp;</a>of the company buying Lumen Technologies, Inc.’s (LUMN) consumer fiber business for about $5.5 billion.Commenting on the rumored deal, BofA Securities said Lumen's mass market segment covers 16 midwestern and western states with virtually no state-level overlap with AT&amp;T. The brokerage believes a potential combination offers upside to AT&amp;T's 50 million fiber passings target.BofA has a ‘Buy’ rating and a $28 price target on AT&amp;T shares.Last week, RBC Capital upped the price target for AT&amp;T stock to $28 from $27, while maintaining an ‘Outperform’ rating.&nbsp;Earlier this month, AT&amp;T said it remains on track to meet all of the 2025 and multi-year financial and operational guidance and capital allocation plans issued in its fourth-quarter earnings call. But peer Verizon, Inc.'s (VZ) comments on competitive pressure weighed down on AT&amp;T as well.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:628/132;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/at_and_t_sentiment_png_3fe51e74a0.webp" alt="at&amp;t-sentiment.png" width="628" height="132"><figcaption>T sentiment and message volume March 27, as of 3:19 am ET | Source:&nbsp;Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward AT&amp;T stock remained ‘extremely bearish’ (15/100), with the message volume at ‘extremely low’ levels.
