    Is AT&T Stock Still Worth Buying for Its 6% Yield?

    Shares of AT&T (NYSE:T) have been on a tear lately, rallying from $30.50 at the end of May to north of $34 earlier this week. That 12.5% jump really got the attention of T stock investors, given what a slump this name has been in. In the first four months of the year, ATT stock had eked out a 4.2% gain while the S&P 500 index climbed 16.2%.Of course, most investors ignore the valuation, the company's various businesses and even its debt. Instead, they focus on the dividend, which still yields almost 6% even after the big rally we've seen. Should investors buy for this reason alone?InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips AT&T Stock and Its DividendInvestors should view the dividend from T stock as very attractive. We've outlined why this payout is so tempting numerous times on InvestorPlace over the past year.Basically, we've got a company that's been super consistent with not only paying its dividend, but raising it as well. Including this year's bump, AT&T stock has raised its payout for 35 straight years. That's through recessions, uncertainty and big fluctuations in interest rates.The stock now yields 5.96%, as of Wednesday's close, and while attractive, it may not be attractive enough on that yield alone. After all, the stock is up more than 10% inside of a month. If investors buy in now, they risk taking a haircut on their principal. While some investors may only be interested in the income, we're looking at T stock from a total return perspective. T Stock FinancialsA major concern for T stock has been the debt. Simply put, the company has a lot, currently standing at $167 billion in long-term debt. That's a daunting sum for any company. * 7 Retail Stocks to Buy That Are Down in 2019 But consider that a bulk of this debt came from the company's $85.4 billion acquisition of Time Warner (TW). TW had growing revenue and earnings, and strong cash flow. Investors may still be leery about AT&T because of this deal. That's because one of its prior deals didn't work out so great. It bought DirecTV for $48.5 billion in 2014. Now though, all anyone seems to focus on each quarter is how many subscribers AT&T is losing in this asset thanks to cord-cutting.I wouldn't worry about the Time Warner deal as much though. It kicks off great cash flow and puts AT&T in a better position, even with the larger debt load.For instance, free cash flow (FCF) came in at $5.9 billion last quarter, up 107% year-over-year (YoY) from $2.83 billion. More importantly though, the FCF dividend ratio (or the percentage of FCF that's paid out in the form of a dividend) fell from 108.5% in Q1 2018 to just 63.3% in Q1 2019. That's a huge reduction and further pads the safety in AT&T's dividend.To be sure, dividend-loving ATT stock investors got nervous reading recent headlines. First, there was the rumor that Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) would buy Boost and compete in telecoms. Then it was that Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) would team with Dish Network (NASDAQ:DISH) to compete in satellite-delivered content. What ever. Right now, all we need to know is that FCF is strong and AT&T has consistent business. That should allow it cut down debt and pay out its dividend. At 10 times earnings, we can live with that. * 10 Best Stocks for 2019: A Volatile First Half Streaming PlansOn July 9, the company announced its plans for HBO Max, a service joining HBO Now and HBO Go. To me it would have made more sense to roll HBO Max's selling points -- adding Friends, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Pretty Little Liars, HBO content and exclusive shows and content -- right into HBO Now. Then raising the price down the road.Yet another streaming service from HBO feels clunky and unnecessary. Particularly with Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), Hulu, Disney's (NYSE:DIS) coming offerings, Amazon's Prime Video and others now available or coming soon. I think the Street would have cheered a stronger lineup of content for HBO Now and an eventual price hike to justify it, more than HBO Max. We'll see how it pans out. Trading T Stock Click to EnlargeMy issue with T stock now is how far it's run. Granted, the stock came down on news of the company's new streaming strategy. Should it continue to deteriorate, AT&T stock price could offer investors an attractive entry in the name.Remember, AT&T stock hasn't exactly been blowing it out of the water when it comes to earnings. Maybe that will be the case again this quarter and shares will fall.In any regard, $35 is multi-year resistance, while a dip to $32 to $32.50 would be a great opportunity to get long.Bret Kenwell is the manager and author of Future Blue Chips and is on Twitter @BretKenwell. As of this writing, Bret Kenwell is long AMZN, GOOGL and T.

    10 Stocks That Are Crushing The Market As Costs Hit A Breaking Point

    While many investors are focused on the negative impacts of tariffs and the U.S.-China trade war on corporate profits, they may be overlooking another sizable threat, which is rapidly rising labor costs. The median company in the S&P 500 Index (SPX) pays out 13% of its revenues in the form of employee compensation, and these costs grew by 3% in 2018, the fastest pace during the current economic expansion, which began in June 2009, Goldman Sachs reported this week. Goldman believes that stocks with lower than average labor costs as a percentage of sales are well-positioned to outperform in this environment.
