AT&T logoWednesday morning, Standard & Poor’s announced that it may cut AT&T’s (T) credit rating because the company could have trouble reducing its debt load within a “reasonable timeframe.”

The ratings house placed the communications firm on CreditWatch negative with implications, which includes the company’s “A” rating and its “A-1″ short-term and commercial paper ratings. S&P stated, that it expects “a potential downgrade of the corporate credit rating, if any, would be limited to one notch.” This news has had very little impact on the stock, as shares of the titan of telecom were trading near break-even by late morning.

Thursday morning AT&T (T) announced that second-quarter diluted earnings totaled 68 cents per share. The results were 14 cents better than the same quarter a year ago. Taking a one-time gain of seven cents out of the equation (stemming from a stock transaction), AT&T still managed to top the consensus estimate of 57 cents per share.

The company also reported that it topped 90 million connections for the first time during the quarter, driven by a record 3.2 million iPhone accounts activated (a company record). The activations weren’t solely driven by the iPhone, as 1.6 million other wireless connections were added (a second-quarter record). All in all, it was a solid quarter for AT&T.

The shares of AT&T (T), first discussed here on February 11, 2009 at a price of $26, continue to meander. In fact, the stock has formed a modest downtrend that’s raised a caution flag.

Look for T’s revenue to grow about 2-3% in 2010, led by an impressive increase in cell phone customers (which numbered about 85 million as of January 2010) and wireless data service customers.

Apple, Inc. (AAPL) needs to send personalized holiday cards to all of its customers to thank them for their unwavering and fierce loyalty. Apple-philes are a special breed of fanatic, and they are always in search of the next innovation. Witness the initial iPad sales, which surpassed even Apple’s optimistic expectations. And witness early pre-orders of the iPhone 4, debuting in the U.S. on June 24.

First, anxious shoppers crashed AT&T, Inc.’s (T) shopping server in the wee hours of Wednesday morning. AT&T has now suspended advance orders indefinitely. And still, the number of pre-orders for the iPhone 4 were 10 times higher than orders for the 3GS last year. If you weren’t one of the lucky ones to order through Apple or AT&T while they still had existing inventory, you’ll be waiting until the next shipment, expected to be before July 2.
