The stock was at $33 and change at around 11 a.m., up about 3% on the session. It currently yields 6.2%.</p><p>The stock, which has lagged behind the broader market in recent years, has long been a popular option for equity income investors. It has a five-year annual return of about 2.5%, versus 17.6% for the&nbsp;S&amp;P 500,&nbsp;according to FactSet.</p><p>But the dividend’s health had been in question given a debt load that was exacerbated by the company’s 2018 acquisition of the WarnerMedia assets, which include TNT, CNN, HBO, and the Warner Bros. movie studio. As of March 31, long-term debt totaled about $160.7 billion, up from $153.8 billion at the end of 2020.</p><p>In an interview with CNBC Monday morning, AT&amp;T CEO&nbsp;John Stankey&nbsp;said “there’s been some overhang on our equity that’s been driven by the balance sheet dynamic,” notably debt.

The stock was at $33 and change at around 11 a.m., up about 3% on the session. It currently yields 6.2%.The stock, which has lagged behind the broader market in recent years, has long been a popular option for equity income investors. It has a five-year annual return of about 2.5%, versus 17.6% for the S&P 500, according to FactSet.But the dividend’s health had been in question given a debt load that was exacerbated by the company’s 2018 acquisition of the WarnerMedia assets, which include TNT, CNN, HBO, and the Warner Bros. movie studio. As of March 31, long-term debt totaled about $160.7 billion, up from $153.8 billion at the end of 2020.In an interview with CNBC Monday morning, AT&T CEO John Stankey said “there’s been some overhang on our equity that’s been driven by the balance sheet dynamic,” notably debt. The deal will allow AT&T to “accelerate our deleveraging of the business,” he added.Under the deal with Discovery (DISCA), AT&T shareholders would own 71% of the new company—potentially capturing some upside there if the combination works as billed.Stankey told CNBC that the company is giving the shareholders an interest in a fast-growing media company and that AT&T is “continuing to maintain a very, very hearty and healthy dividend.”In April, AT&T said it was aiming for a dividend payout ratio in the “high 50% range.” But with the WarnerMedia assets jettisoned, it needs to resize, or cut, the dividend.In a news release Monday, AT&T said it expects an “annual dividend payout ratio of 40% to 43% of anticipated free cash flow of $20 billion plus.”Simon Flannery of  Morgan Stanley observed in a research note Monday that, “If we assume an $8 [billion] payout, this would be a nearly 50% reduction from current levels of some $15 [billion] and would put the stock on a low 4%” yield and that stock “buybacks could also be a possibility down the road.”Bottom line: It’s still a cut.And that could put its status as a member of the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats, a group of stocks that have paid out higher dividends for at least 25 straight years, in peril. AT&T’s last increase, by a penny, was declared in late 2019.The stock’s status in that group will be reviewed, according to Howard Silverblatt of S&P Dow Jones

Worse","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2133686350","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"(Bloomberg) -- Cars are back in vogue courtesy of the pandemic. They’re also getting more expensive,","content":"<p>(Bloomberg) -- Cars are back in vogue courtesy of the pandemic. They’re also getting more expensive, thanks in part to surging commodity prices.</p>\n<p>Many of the essential ingredients for automakers, such as copper, steel and aluminum, are hitting or approaching record highs this year as the lagging supply can’t keep up with stimulus-driven demand. The Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index jumped to its highest since 2011, with metals up 21% so far this year.</p>\n<p>Should the current rally morph into a supercycle, rising car prices could forebode inflation across the board. Analysts at JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. estimate the price of an auto’s raw materials have climbed 83% in the year through March. Those pieces typically make up about 10% of the cost of building a vehicle, meaning the price tag for a $40,000 car would have to increase 8.3% to offset the rally, analysts for the bank wrote.</p>\n<p>“We’re definitely feeling the commodity headwind,” Jim Farley, chief executive officer of Ford Motor Co., said last week. “We’re seeing inflation in a variety of parts of our industry, kind of in ways we haven’t seen for many years.”</p>\n<p>Carmakers usually struggle to pass on higher costs, but demand is booming as major economies reopen and many consumers continue avoiding public transportation. The global semiconductor shortage also is inhibiting production, keeping inventory tight and driving up vehicle prices.</p>\n<p>In the U.S., car supply is so limited that rental companies are resorting to buying used vehicles at auction rather than new ones.</p>\n<p>The main contributor to higher commodity costs hitting the industry is the steel needed for chassis, engines and wheels. The metal’s recent rally has smashed records as China -- by far the biggest producer -- took measures to curb output.</p>\n<p>The boom in copper prices adds to the costs of electric vehicles just as the industry implements an energy transformation to meet tighter emissions standards.

They’re also getting more expensive, thanks in part to surging commodity prices.\nMany of the essential ingredients for automakers, such as copper, steel and aluminum, are hitting or approaching record highs this year as the lagging supply can’t keep up with stimulus-driven demand. The Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index jumped to its highest since 2011, with metals up 21% so far this year.\nShould the current rally morph into a supercycle, rising car prices could forebode inflation across the board. Analysts at JPMorgan Chase & Co. estimate the price of an auto’s raw materials have climbed 83% in the year through March. Those pieces typically make up about 10% of the cost of building a vehicle, meaning the price tag for a $40,000 car would have to increase 8.3% to offset the rally, analysts for the bank wrote.\n“We’re definitely feeling the commodity headwind,” Jim Farley, chief executive officer of Ford Motor Co., said last week. “We’re seeing inflation in a variety of parts of our industry, kind of in ways we haven’t seen for many years.”\nCarmakers usually struggle to pass on higher costs, but demand is booming as major economies reopen and many consumers continue avoiding public transportation. The global semiconductor shortage also is inhibiting production, keeping inventory tight and driving up vehicle prices.\nIn the U.S., car supply is so limited that rental companies are resorting to buying used vehicles at auction rather than new ones.\nThe main contributor to higher commodity costs hitting the industry is the steel needed for chassis, engines and wheels. The metal’s recent rally has smashed records as China -- by far the biggest producer -- took measures to curb output.\nThe boom in copper prices adds to the costs of electric vehicles just as the industry implements an energy transformation to meet tighter emissions standards. EVs use nearly 3 1/2 times more copper than gas guzzlers because of the larger amount of wiring inside, according to consultancy Wood Mackenzie Ltd.\nThe increases may hurt automakers like Tesla Inc. and Volkswagen AG that are trying to make EVs more price-competitive with traditional cars.\nThey also may encourage automakers to explore alternative chemistries for their EV batteries. The majority of cells use some combination of lithium, cobalt and nickel, which have jumped a minimum of 47% each in the past 12 months.\nFord and BMW AG were among those investing $130 million this month in battery startup Solid Power Inc., which is working on cells that would remove the need for those metals, leading to a 10-fold decline in power pack costs.\n“They are looking to spread that risk,” said Caspar Rawles, head of price and data assessments at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence. “There is no hedging for lithium or cobalt.”\nBMW expects headwinds from rising commodity prices of as much as 1 billion euros ($1.2 billion) for the year, Chief Financial Officer Nicolas Peter said Friday during an earnings briefing.

refine the necessary technologies, BMW CEO Oliver Zipse said.\nJeep maker Stellantis NV -- formed from the merger of Fiat Chrysler and PSA Group –- said it needed to recover some of its higher costs, and the marketplace is supportive, so far.\n“It’s hard to imagine a better environment with which to pass through the impact of supply shock and price inflation to consumers who are effectively lining
