Shares of AT&T fell on Thursday after CEO John Stankey said that customers are starting to put off paying their phone bills - which resulted in the wireless carrier cutting this year's forecast for free cash flow to $2 billion, Bloomberg reports.

Shares fell as much as 11% in early trading, the company's largest slide since 2022 which erased the stock's YTD gains.
