Kate Johnson is betting nearly $1 million that the investors fleeing her company are wrong. Johnson bought 1 million shares of Lumen Technologies stock last week as it dipped into penny-stock territory, costing the telecommunications company boss $970,000. The former Microsoft and General Electric executive said the purchase made sense as she felt investors overreacted to a complicated third-quarter report and restructuring plan.

▼ + stars: | 2023-10-31 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +1 min

Oct 31 (Reuters) - Telecommunications services firm Lumen Technologies (LUMN.N) beat Wall Street estimates for third-quarter revenue on Tuesday, helped by strong demand for its services as businesses digitize their operations. The Monroe, Louisiana-based company posted revenue of $3.64 billion for the quarter ended Sept. 30, beating analysts' average estimate of $3.61 billion, according to LSEG data, but fell 17% from a year earlier. The proposed sale of Lumen's EMEA business is expected to close on Wednesday, subject to meeting customary closing conditions, the company said. The company said its long-term debt at the end of the third-quarter was $19.74 billion. Lumen posted a net loss of $78 million for the quarter compared with a reported net income of $578 million a year earlier.

☆ Microsoft to widely offer an AI feature into outlook that can write emails for you
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-12 | by ( Jennifer Korn | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

New York CNN —Artificial intelligence could soon be writing more company emails in Microsoft Outlook, as the company expands its rollout of AI tools for corporate users. The Microsoft 365 Copilot tool – “your everyday AI companion,” as the company bills it – will help users write their emails to “keep your sentences concise and error-free.” The tool also summarizes long email threads to quickly draft suggested replies. Users with Microsoft 365 Personal or Family subscriptions will get more advanced AI help through Microsoft Editor, an intelligent writing assistant. The initial wave of attention on the tool helped renew an arms race among tech companies to develop and deploy similar AI tools in their products. Microsoft rival Google, for example, has also brought AI to its productivity tools, including Gmail, Sheets and Docs.

Wildcat said it owned 3 million Consolidated Communications shares, equivalent to about a 2.6% stake. The offer was made on April 12 by a consortium led by private equity firm Searchlight Capital, which owns 34% of Consolidated Communications. Consolidated Communications formed a special committee to consider the offer later that month but has not provided an update since. TD Cowen analysts wrote in an April 13 note that they expected Consolidated Communications to accept the deal given its capital needs and operational challenges. But Wildcat argues that any deal should not be for less than $14 per share because the value of Consolidated Communications' investment in its business has yet to be realized.

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan. The recent burst of stock market optimism around the world still seems to be on shaky ground. Despite expectations the U.S. Federal Reserve will signal a much-vaunted 'downshift' in its rate rise campaign from next month - following a fourth straight 75 basis point rise on Wednesday - the incoming economic numbers won't play ball. The other slightly peculiar source of global market optimism this week has been unverified speculation over the past 48 hours that China will ease its draconian zero COVID rules in March. In Europe, markets awaited the Bank of England's latest interest rate decision on Thursday - with the bank's biggest rate rise in 33 years forecast.
