Despite recent daily decline, AMT received a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) rating with positive earnings growth expectations (EPS +1.44% YoY, revenue +2.06% YoY). Consensus estimates for full-year earnings and revenue show solid growth (+2.88% and +3.68% respectively). The Zacks Consensus EPS estimate moved 0.2% higher in the past month, indicating analyst confidence. However, the stock trades at a valuation premium to its industry average, which presents some caution.
