9:45 ET -- AT&T Inc. is one of the most mentioned companies in the U.S. across all news items in the last 12 hours, according to Factiva data. Before the market open Thursday, the telecommunications giant reported first-quarter earnings that beat estimates, although its $30.1 billion in revenue slightly missed analysts' targets. While AT&T continued to add wireless subscribers in the first quarter, the company's postpaid phone plans are beginning to slump after flourishing during the Covid-19 pandemic. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva. (susan.solan@wsj.com)
