The Silver Lining in AT&T's Murky Future

AT&T (NYSE: T) has historically served as a stable investment, but those days are now at risk. Once the coronavirus pandemic struck, AT&T's revenue plunged.

Combine a pandemic with some concerning company performance metrics, and AT&T starts to look like a questionable investment. But that's not all. AT&T faces an increased threat from rival T-Mobile, which strengthened its position in the competitive U.S. market through a merger with Sprint this year.

Even after AT&T weathers the pandemic's impact, the company's challenges mean it has an uphill battle ahead. Does it make sense to invest in this telecom icon?
