September 10-year T-notes (ZNU25) Thursday closed down -6 ticks. The 10-year T-note yield rose by +3.2 bp to 4.412%.

Also, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday that the US and EU are closing in on a trade deal. T-notes dropped to their lows Thursday after weekly US jobless claims unexpectedly fell to a 3-month low, a sign of labor market strength that is hawkish for Fed policy.
However, T-notes recovered from their worst levels Thursday after June new home sales rose less than expected and the US manufacturing PMI unexpectedly fell to a 7-month low, dovish factors for Fed policy.

ECB President Lagarde said the economic risks to the Eurozone are tilted to the downside, and a stronger euro could dampen inflation more than expected.

Swaps are discounting the chances at 27% for a -25 bp rate cut by the ECB at the September 11 policy meeting.

Stocks Supported by Strong Earnings from Alphabet

T-Mobile US(NASDAQ:TMUS) reported its Q2 2025 earnings on July 23, 2025, achieving record postpaid net additions, 9% year-over-year postpaid service revenue growth, and raising full-year guidance across multiple financial and operating metrics.
Insights include the company's surging ARPA, significant expansion into fiber broadband, and network advantages further accelerated by the commercial launch of T-Satellite. The pending UScellular acquisition didn't contribute to these results, but should boost T-Mobile's growth after closing.
ARPA growth surges for TMUS, driven by premium plan uptake
Postpaid ARPA (Average Revenue Per Account) grew over 5%, marking its fastest rate in eight years, while also seeing industry-topping gross and net postpaid additions. Premium tier adoption more than doubled compared to a year earlier.
"Our customers are continuing to self-select up the rate card. Here's a new stat for you. After launching our new rate plans in April, within that premium segment we've been talking to you about, customers are loving our most premium tier within it more than ever. Selecting our new experience beyond plan at more than double the rate of Go5G Next just a year ago and up over 50% in just one quarter."
— Mike Sievert, President and CEO
This pronounced uptiering signals enduring pricing power and mitigates ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) erosion risk, reinforcing TMUS's ability to convert network investments into actual value per account.
TMUS accelerates fiber broadband scale with JV strategy
Completion of the Lumos JV in April 2025 and the imminent close of the MetroNet JV are poised to deliver one hundred thousand or more fiber net additions for the year. TMUS’s operational go-to-market consolidates JVs and wholesale agreements onto a unified IT platform, enhancing scalability.
"Last month, we launched T-Fiber after completing our JVX acquisition of Lumos in April, and tomorrow, we plan to close our JV acquisition of MetroNet. With both up and running under the T-Fiber banner in the second half, we're poised to deliver one hundred thousand or more fiber nets on top of our planned 5G broadband nets this year. We are off to the races."
— Mike Sievert, President and CEO
Expanding into pure-play fiber via capital-efficient JVs diversifies TMUS’s broadband portfolio from solely mid-band FWA (fixed wireless access).
Network expansion and UScellular deal redefine rural TAM for TMUS
The pending UScellular transaction, set to close August 1, 2025, will increase combined network capacity by 50% and expand covered rural sites from 9,000 to 12,000. The commercial launch of T-Satellite further covers 500,000 square miles previously unserved by terrestrial networks, directly targeting share gains outside the top 100 markets.
"With all required approvals now in place, I'm pleased to say that we plan to close the transaction and become one team next week on August first. We can't wait to welcome UScellular customers to the T-Mobile US family. The combination gives us an expected 50% or more increase in capacity in the combined footprint and our site coverage will expand by a third from nine thousand to twelve thousand sites. Taken together with the greenfield builds I mentioned earlier, the network experience in smaller markets in rural areas is being fundamentally transformed. Just further fueling our ability to compete and grow in this space. And just this morning, we launched our groundbreaking T-Satellite service commercially, further extending our network to connect customers in the five hundred thousand square miles of this country that are not covered terrestrially by anyone."
— Mike Sievert, President and CEO
Secured rural expansion and satellite augmentation fundamentally reshape T-Mobile US’s addressable market and set the stage for both differentiated wholesale and enterprise verticals such as first responders and public safety.
Looking Ahead
Management raised full-year guidance for total postpaid net additions to 6.1 million–6.4 million (up by 500,000 at midpoint), with at least 100,000 from fiber for the year. Postpaid ARPA growth is guided at a minimum 3.5% for the year, service revenue growth of at least 6% for the year, and core adjusted EBITDA at $33.3 billion–$33.7 billion for the year. Cash CapEx is expected at $9.5 billion for the year, and adjusted free cash flow (adjusted, non-GAAP) guidance increased to $17.6 billion–$18 billion for the year.

Exchange traded funds (ETFs) trade just like stocks, but instead of ''shares'' investors are actually buying and selling ''units''. These ''units'' can be traded back and forth just like stocks, but can also be created or destroyed to accommodate investor demand. Each week we monitor the week-over-week change in shares outstanding data, to keep a lookout for those ETFs experiencing notable inflows (many new units created) or outflows (many old units destroyed). Creation of new units will mean the underlying holdings of the ETF need to be purchased, while destruction of units involves selling underlying holdings, so large flows can also impact the individual components held within ETFs.

T-Mobile US (TMUS) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

T-Mobile (TMUS) came out with quarterly earnings of $2.84 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.69 per share. This compares to earnings of $2.49 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +5.58%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this wireless carrier would post earnings of $2.45 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.58, delivering a surprise of +5.31%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.
T-Mobile, which belongs to the Zacks Wireless National industry, posted revenues of $21.13 billion for the quarter ended June 2025, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.77%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $19.77 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
T-Mobile shares have added about 5.7% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 7.3%.
What's Next for T-Mobile?
While T-Mobile has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for T-Mobile was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $2.75 on $21.41 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $10.59 on $86.38 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Wireless National is currently in the bottom 28% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the same industry, United States Cellular (USM), has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2025.
This wireless telecommunications service provider is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.33 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +65%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
United States Cellular's revenues are expected to be $904.19 million, down 2.5% from the year-ago quarter.
