On CNBC's “Mad Money Lightning Round,” Jim Cramer recommended staying away from AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T).
On the earnings front, the telecom giant reported third-quarter operating revenues of $30.71 billion. That’s just a 1.6% increase compared to the same period last year. It also fell short of the analyst consensus estimate of $30.87 billion.
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) stood at 54 cents, in line with the analyst consensus estimate.
