AT&T (T)
T is a telecommunications company. It is one of the largest cell phone service companies out there. If you have a phone, you have heard of AT&T before. This company primarily makes money from their customers that use them as their carrier. When a new phone is released, mobile carriers typically have deals that make people go with them. This increases their customer base and hence, their revenue too. T may have attractive deals for the new iPhone 13. Because people would like to get the new iPhone, they may go with T to get it.

AT&T (T) Max Chart (Yahoo Finance)
We can see that T has moved neutrally for many years. This company does not have a strong upwards trend and we actually see negative historical price returns. The company also had a significantly lower annual top-line revenue last year. Some investors may like this company due to the high dividends they pay, but T recently disclosed that they are lowering their dividends. On a positive note, T has delivered consistent beats during their last 4 earnings. When we invest in long-term holds, we typically like to see an increasing annual top-line revenue and a consistent, strong upwards trend.
