		<description><![CDATA[The world economy is currently going through a recovery phase. The momentum is expected to remain strong in 2011. The Telecommunications Industry is identified as a major driver of the global economic recovery. Capital spending constraints among telecom operators due to severe recessionary conditions were the main hindrance to the growth of this industry. However, with the economic recovery in full swing, large telecom service providers are gradually expanding their network coverage on the back of significant subscriber growth. The telecommunications industry encompasses a lot of technology-related businesses. Besides the legacy local and long-distance wireline phone services, telecommunications industry also includes wireless communications, Internet services, fiber optics networks, cable TV networks and commercial satellite communications.

		<description><![CDATA[We downgrade our recommendation on American Tower Corp. (AMT) to Underperform based on its current valuation. The stock price has moved up by nearly 37.3% in the last one year and currently is at the high-end of its 52-week price range. With respect to several valuation metrics, the stock is also trading at significant higher multiple compared to the S&#38;P 500 average and the industry average. We believe American Tower is overvalued at this stage. The company’s fourth-quarter 2010 net income missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Although our long-term view regarding the tower industry remains positive supported by a spurt of demand for smartphones and other mobile devices, we believe the current valuation of American Tower is already reflecting these positives. Wireless tower industry has become extremely competitive as other ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We downgrade our recommendation for American Tower Corp. (AMT) to Neutral, which signifies that the stock will perform almost in line with the broader market. American Tower continues its strong performance driven by substantial demand for tower space to facilitate high-speed wireless data and on demand video services, together with super-fast 3G/4G technologies. We believe tremendous demand for wireless data and video in the developed markets coupled with diversification into several emerging markets will significantly boost the company’s long-term growth. Nevertheless, the stock price has moved up by nearly 33% in the last one year, which may restrict above market gain any time soon. As per our assessment, American Tower is fairly valued at present. Mobile subscriber growth has significantly boosted the wireless tower industry. Future financials are likely to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[American Tower Corp.

While our overall view is neutral for the industry, the recent sell-off has created attractive opportunities in a number of stocks. The industry encompasses a lot of technology-related businesses. Besides the traditional local and long-distance wire-line telephone services, telecommunications also include wireless communications, Internet services, fiber optics networks, cable TV networks and satellite communications.

		<description><![CDATA[The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has outlined its goals for the “National Broadband Plan&#8221; (NBP), which the agency will deliver to the Congress on March 16, 2010. The regulator has drafted ambitious proposals that will revolutionize the US broadband industry and provide the necessary infrastructure to connect all the corners of the nation. As a reminder, the NBP is aimed at setting up strategies and appropriate regulatory framework to promote adoption, affordability and wider availability of broadband Internet in the US. Under the directives of Congress, the FCC has chalked out action plans to ensure far-reaching accessibility of broadband in the country. As expected, the FCC’s blueprint includes the previously announced &#8220;100 Squared&#8221; initiative.

		<description><![CDATA[American Tower Corp. (AMT) today declared fourth quarter 2009 financial results. On a GAAP basis, fourth quarter net income from continuing operations was $64.2 million or 16 cents per share compared to a net income of $82.8 million or 20 cents per share from continuing operations in the prior-year quarter. Quarterly EPS of 16 cents was well below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 18 cents. Significant increase in loss on retirement of long-term obligations and higher income taxes hurt the company’s bottom-line in the reported quarter. Quarterly total revenue of $448 million was an improvement of 9.7% year-over-year. This was mostly in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $446 million. The primary reason for the solid top-line performance was the healthy growth of the company’s core Rental and Management ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[American Tower Corp. (AMT) is all set to purchase 4,200 mobile phone towers from Essar Telecom Infrastructure, industry sources predicted, for approximately $425 million. Essar Telecom Infrastructure is a small-sized wireless tower operator of India. The deal is expected to be announced later this month. The wireless tower sector in India is undergoing a wave of consolidation. Smaller players are looking at mergers or complete sell-out to large global tower operators since these companies lack the wherewithal to take on their larger rivals. Although the deal is likely to be signed for $425 million, there will be provision for Essar Telecom Infrastructure to scale up its total number of tower counts in the next 60 days since the company has some order backlog that needs to be completed by next ]]></description>

(AMT) is likely to purchase 4,000 mobile phone towers from Essar Telecom Infrastructure for $350 million &#8211; $400 million. Essar Telecom Infrastructure is a small-sized wireless tower operator of India. The deal is expected to be announced in Jan 2010.

The acquisition increases the total ]]></description>
