Despite AT & T 's stock trailing the overall market, analysts from JPMorgan and Wells Fargo think the storied company is well positioned for long-term growth. AT & T dates back to 1876, when Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone and then founded Bell Telephone Company a year later. Both JPMorgan and Wells Fargo think the firm can continue to grow its wireless business with a steady stream of new customers. The analyst maintains an overweight rating on AT & T stock with a $20 per share price target, implying 15% upside moving forward. In the first-quarter, the company said it reported the lowest level of postpaid customer churn for that time period ever.

AT & T is coming out on top in the epic battle between wireless companies to win over customers and gain subscribers, according to Wells Fargo. Analyst Eric Luebchow upgraded the telecom company to overweight from an equal weight rating, saying in a Tuesday note that shares look more attractive than Verizon 's and offer a superior growth trajectory. Luebchow also views AT & T as a way for investors to play defense in a difficult market and inflationary backdrop. The company's growth momentum looks better positioned than that of Verizon, which faces earnings risks from rising rates and consumer phone declines, he added. The stock outperformed in 2022, falling just 0.9% and is already up 3.4% in the new year.
